my latitude is 33.99 and longitude is 83.89, I know I have to set up my motor elevation to 34.The declination angle for my area is 5.5,now my question: what is the angle that i have to reduce 5.5?,thanks a lot in advance

that would be your dish elevation. set the motor to your Lat on the lat scale.and leave it along then adjust the dish mount for best signal.

I have been told by Fortecstar in Canada that the Viewsat VS2000 Ultra has issues with the Stab HH90 motors and will not work ok. Is this true? I have had some problems with my HH90 motor, lately jammed up and I found one of the smaller gears had some broken teeth. I had earler installed the Replacement board that they sent me. Now I also believe it to be damaged when the motor stopped. My concern is if the Viewsat receivers are not usable in the USALS mode, I do not wish to send the motor back to Canada as the postage shipping will be too costly from here in Chile. What other HH motors can be recommended to be used with my Viewsat? Maybe I can find a motor here in Chile.
