HH90 Motor Help

[slimmswitch]

I have a 33" dish and a Pansat 2300A and i just bought a HH90 Motor. I adjusted the latitude on the motor to 38.4 (I'm in toronto, ON, also my dish has a elevation meter should i need to adust that to anything...)According to the instructions i've seen they say to start searching for the closest sat and is my true south. So my question is since my longitude is 79.2 , would i look for transponders on AMC5 (79.0)till i get a signal... Or am i way off. As well, do i leave my skew at 0 on the dish lnb?? Right now i'm pointing to AMC5 level is 99% but no quality..


Any help appreciated.

Hope this helps:

Procedure:

Set motor to Center (zero setting).
Alighn dish to center line so all is pointing at this 0.

Point the whole thing at 190 degrees (180 plus your 10) using good compass. Get this as good as you can, it will be important.

Now, put your co-ordinates of 3x.xN and 7x.xW in the USALS settings of your receiver, pick AMC5 and have the motor move there. It wont move much.

Pick an active transponder on AMC5 11742 V for the Utah Education network is a good one, and move your dish elevation, and the whole dish & motor assembly as a unit side to side until you get best signal. Do not use motor to move dish, and do not adust the motor's bracket settings (should be set to 38.7 and stay there).

Tighten motor to pole mount bolts and dish elevation when you get good signal.

Now use USALS to move to another satellite to the left and right of center. See how well you did.
