    Digiwave DG6800 settings for dish install?

    Hi. This is my 1st FTA dish install, I've installed 3 BEV dishs prior, but this time I've got a HH990 dish motor involved and a 33" dish. 1) Dish mount is attached to my roof and the arm is leveled 2) HH990 motor is locked at 45 degrees (the manual say 45 degrees for 45 latitude) 3)...

    Thanks PSB. My lat is 45.42 and my long is 75.72. (Ottawa, Canada) That should be +14 degrees from compass south right? As for the dish motor, it's supposed to be the Digiwave HH990, but the manual says SPM990 on the cover. The manual has an elevation and declination table. For 45 long...
