Hi

And sorry I jumped in this thread cause I do not have a darkmotor.

Anyway I have other ones and I think that biggest problem is always to get a dish and motor in correct arc.

Normally there will be instructions with your motor "how to install"
And also some examples what went wrong...

Can also use eg "gorbtrack" program.(google)

And second problem is how to use Your receiver.

I found that the easy part,the hard part is keeping the positions lol

Hi

Most of satellites are in correct orbit, not all.

Earth is also pretty stable.

Problems with USALS are normally then coming from...end users.
And I do not have a darkmotor.

So normally if a motor and dish(+lnb skew..cables, connections but they are not so important now,I guess) is installed correctly.

So..end user just have to try find out what is wrong with his set up :)
