OK, sorry to be a pain, but I was reading the online setup manual for the Fortec Lifetime Classic NA receiver, and was wondering, when I go to setup my dish, I am going to aim it for G10R, do I change the satellite name in the setup menu so that the receiver menu shows G10R? The instructions said to leave the setting where they are at, and that is a different satellite than what I want to view. Thanks for any help! I have set up numerous Dish and Directv systems over the years, so I am comfortable with the aiming, elevation and such. The outfit I ordered comes with a meter and a compass - I have never used one for satellite setups before, so am anxious to have more "toys" to play with :)

The Fortec lists most (if not all) of the major satellites that we can get in North America (from Pas9 at 58 to Dish 148 at 148) :)

You just scroll down to the satellite and select it

THANKS! I figured that must be the case, but as usual, got ahead of myself and am already reading on the setup, and the system has not even shipped yet :)
