My road to multi sat (motor)

She seems to be tipping towards the south direction
Il have another look on Tuesday

I have 13 19 28 working

Happy with that


Also I’m just making up as I go lol
 
Epg has got well slow with just downloading from plugins

As I’m using the sky dish, what angel should I set the dish itself too. Or just set it so it’s flat with the mount
 
Did you get round to the motor

No mate, that will be a project for next year now I think. I haven't got any spare time at the minute.
I've already got 2 dishes on the house with multi-lnb's so will have to be a pole at the bottom of the garden.
 
If your elevation is to high you will only
Get the west satellites If its to low you
Will only get east satellites There is also the correction angle which is + - 1
Degree You might have to adjust the elevation off the motor slightily to let
The dish track across the ark When the dish moves to thor 0.8 west if i can remember my elevation was 28
 
See this is where I get so so lost lol

The detail

13 19 28 I’m getting pretty good signal
28 I’m getting 92
13 is around 50 I think
 
Regarding the epg I don't bother with downloading the foreign sats as they self populate once you go on them. I use vhannibal and an edited version for my spare box for 19 + 28.2 only
 
Ordered a 100cm or amazon
I got a £100 voucher from EE when I signed up last month

So that will cover it and maybe a new motor
 
Ordered a new motor too
The one I had was a used one of the bay

To try and make it easier il start all new
 
Turns out I have been pointing my dish and motor to high

I had it set to 54 as I read some where you set it to your lat
But that looked to high so I moved it down

But seems it meant to be in the mid 30 if I remember right
 
You go by the latitude scale so if its 54
Your polar elevation should be 35.4
Declination offset 7.0 ignor the elevation scale on the motor
 
So how do you know the scale

this motor came with nothing and I’m not sure what the sky dish is in

New motor and dish should be here soon enough
They better have paper work
