Hello I need some help this my set up . A Fortec star FC 90U dish ,satcontrol SM3D22 motor, Invacom Circular/Linear Ku 0.3 dB Quad LNBF QPH-031 . & Viewstat ultra. My zip code is 08723 latitude 40.0408 longitude 74.1669 my true south is 180 + 13 degrees . The motor set up .Stated to set the motor at my latitude which is 40 degrees. And the antenn set up as follows . Satcontrol sm3d22 =(46.5 minus declination angle which I believe to be -6.26 @ 40 degrees.So that is set 46.5 - 6.26 = 40.24 on antenna settings.,Also followed the instructions on this forum .. as far as makeing sure the mounting are plum and everything straight . First off I think this is set up ok... My problem is that when i got everything up and running i get approx 65 to 70% signal strengh but no quality at all on any sattelites . I have read all the info i Think on mouting everything right in the forums . As ya can see I need Help Bad . What am i doing wrong Thanks alot HELP ME

What sat are you attempting to align on and what side of the lnbf are you using?

? I don't think it has an "integrated" DiseqC switch, I think that you have to use your own external switch.

you're right Bill the QPH-031 does not have a internal disqec switch must use a external switch.

im sorry i meant that i have this Circular/Linear Ku 0.3 dB Quad LNBF QPH-031 going to a satcontrol sm3d22 mOTOR that has an integrated DiSEqC switch to switch between two separate LNBFs. I have 1 coax from linear side of lnb to lnb1 to motor and the circular side of lnb to motor lnb2 Then SIGNAL COAX CABLE FROM OUTPUT ON MOTOR TO THE reviever

the motor you are using has a 6 degree shift on second LNB so will have to allow for the shift.another thread here has some good info on this just do a search for sm3d22.
