    Arrow Need Help aligning 6' Prime focus Fortec Dish

    Help!!!???? Does anyone have this type of dish and if you do can you measure the distance up the back rod to the first nut and let me know the inch's to it so that I can set mine that way. also the two bolts in the middle of the dish the inch's from the nut to the end of the bolt. I am trying to hit 97 degrees west in West Virginia. Do the bolts in the center back of the dish set the tilt of the dish I am new to this dish.

    The settings for your dish are specific to your location so others settings unless in your immediate area will be of no use. Are you doing a motorized or stationary setup?
