ok great thats what i thought
cause on some of them usals is only getting close not getting a very good signal
but it also leave me to suspect that i'm still slightly out of alignment
well i will keep at it
) this is fun but its taking alot of time lol lol

I'm a relative newbie. Yet, once I aligned my motorized dish for my true south satellite, it hits all others in my line of sight without need for fine-tuning.
well i have a intermitting problem
sometimes it hits a sat and sometimes it doesn't
lol
so far i'm chauking it up to being a newbie.
this motor is nothing like the old von Weise out on my c-band dish
so its taking a bit of learning for me to get this thing right
but its still finding channels so that a good thing ;o)

Some receivers do not take well to mixing DiSEqC 1.2 and USALS. If your motor is tracking properly, most of the satellites will be peaked with USALS. Often a USALS satellite's indexed orbital slot can be offset to correct for one or two satellite positions (I.E. 97w becomes 96.9W, etc.)
i have no problems finding with usals T6 - amc 4
after that is where it falls off
will try some more

well i don't know
it only goes from t6-amc with any consistancy
after that (going west) nothing
now going east from T6 its weird i find channels but some are listed at lyngsat
another thing i noticed is the coolsat doesn't list IA8 but found that one @ coolsat says its nimiq 1
amc3 shows a couple of chanels but not sure its actually amc 3 ( one channel says its " *** news now" which lyngsat says is IA8 but these two were scan a couple hours apart so i actually thing they are infact IA8
now i find some more channels and will post them if its ok in a few minutes

ok I don't understand. When I put on Usuals G- 10 I get 30-35% quality. When i switch to 1.2 and move just a little to the west i get 50-60% i store it but when goto another satalite it wont go back to g-10 ubless i switch back to usuals.. am I doing something wrong?

You may wanna try using Mike Kohl's list instead of LyngSat.. It's easier to use and more up to date..

hmm i have my switch before the motor. you mean it works after the motor? let me see. i have the disc switch after the motor. ok let me think i have the lnb connected to the moter then to the disq switch. wow confusing. Is that right?

Yes it goes after motor... I also had mine before the Motor, USALS and 1.2 will not work right if it is before
Wow thanks PSB.. Thanks for all your help. I had mine hooked up wrong and didnt evan know it. I was wondering why it was acting funny.
