Hi all!

I have just set up my 7000HD spider. I previously had a technomate 5400 super set up on my motorised system. I put my dish to my closest due south sat (5'W) and then set in my new spider box and set up USALS using the same latitude and longitude values as i was using on my technomate. I then spun my dish round to 1'w- but the signal strength values that i am getting are way down on what i was getting with the technomate- I have a really strong signal on 1'W. I now think i have done something wrong in the motor setup. Does anyone have any ideas?

Go to your ref sat
Go to menu > motor set up and find find an active sat transponder
note the sig strength and quality nudge the dish and see if the
readings go up. if they do your not spot on your options

try again with your tm / swop over agian
adjust your dish manualy ( up ladder )
or alter your lat/long till you get max signal strength
