Post your questions here, we'll try to help you out. What sat are you trying to aim at? Double check: dish azimuth/elevation, skew, active stranponders, LOF settings.

SBS6 i s your truesouth sat. Make sure:
1. Correct LOF: low 9750, high 10600.
2. Skew is at 0
3. Use an active transponder on SBS6 when tuning the dish:
11708, H, SR 4000.
4. Make sure mount/dish elevation are correct.
5. Pole must be perfectly vertical.
Once you get locked on SBS6, move your dish to furthest East and WEst sat. If you can get lock on SBS6, furthest East and WEst, you should get all the sats in between.
Please read the instruction of setting up h-h mount posted on Sadoun website.
Good luck
Michael
Note: Make sure the Satcontrol h-h mount is at 0 position when tuning the dish for SBS6. If not, you can use the Fortec receiver to move back to 0.
