I took the leap and need help.

Manually drive the Dish, and get a lock on 105, then reset the motor again.
That should get you close to Zero.
Check Galaxy 25 again.

I just found out that this motor does not "move" back to zero, I have to drive it to zero then reset it. Makes to sense to me but I can get this done. Am I making a mistake of using the USALS drive for the system? Would I be better zeroing then reaiming then then just using diseq commands?

104.9 is your Long, so AMC 15 @ 105 would be about Zero for you.
Get a lock on 105 and reset, the use USALS to go to Galaxy 25 and check Quality.

I finally got it working!!!

I had to scrap the idea of using USALS because when I put in the infor for my location it was always about seven degrees off.

Tried resetting everything and still over seven degrees off.

I used the DISEQ 1.2 commands and just manually ran to each sat.

I have been able to reach as far east as 79 W and as far west as 129 w I did this from 105 w.

It is just a 1 meter dish from Winegard but I am happy to have too many channels to watch and a bunch of radio also.

Thanks for the tips, I hope to upgrade my LNB to a CKU in the near future to see what I can get C-Band with the closer sats!!
