Dish elevation may be subject to further adjustment.
Motor should be aimed at True South at it's "reference position", not to the satellite. True South is 175º on compass for your location.
Your "true south satellite" (the one you should start aiming first), is IA6 at 93ºW. TP 11876, V, SR 3516 has a strong signal.
Whenever you get a signal, do "blind scan", then compare channel info with lyngsat, it will let you know are you off or not.
