77 West is almost south. You should do it yourself with dishpointer.com rather than tell the world exactly where you live. Nice House you have there.

Note the relationship between your longitude and 77 West. If there was a signal in the sky at 76 W, you would be good to go.

If you're using USALS, you don't need to use your true south satellite for alignment, you can align anywhere. How accurate the tracking will be will depend on whether you've got your elevation set exactly and whether your pole is exactly straight.

Everything I've read about getting C-band on a Ku-band dish says that a C/Ku LNB is a complete non-starter for Ku-band. The focal length is all wrong.

I have the 741 and it works very well.It may take some tweaking to get to right though!i know it did for me.

Are you saying you have the 741 on your 36" dish and it works well for Ku?

I thought he meant he was getting a 741 to replace the defective LNB on his larger c band dish
