    Think moving a tripod is bad??? Wait until you move a motorized dish...

    Anyway you are right. It is good practice for dish aiming.

    Good!!!
    It sounds like it is time to do some digging.
    Of course you want the horizon to be as clear as possible from 30 to 125. You want to be able to get every satellite in between.

    Just got 125W at this spot. So I can get 30W & 125W at this spot. Need to fine tune 125W a little more.

    Should I try to get some of the sats in the middle & if yes what sats should I go for.

    Thanks for the help?

    If you got that range from 30 to 125 on KU not much after that..perfect spot for a dish..Motor will bring you everything..did you get the HD PBS channels ok on 125..

    I did get PBS but not great was going to fine tune when the sky opened up. LOL Had to run & put everything away. Going to look for some of the sats in the middle just to play around tomorrow. If everything is OK that will be my pole spot. If this didn't work I was going to mount the dish on my shed & try that. I don't give up that easy. I must say I have enjoyed playing with the dish so far.

    Thanks for all the help.
