    yes,...in tuner config, set it to advanced
    option to use USALs, set it to no
    then set it to your req position, ie; 19 east set it to 19 and so on
    save
    then go to positioner movement, nudge the dish east or west until you fnd the sat you are after, and save the position to ( if 19 east ) 19

    but really USALs are your best option
    Units; VU+Ultimo/duo/DM800/7020HD/tm9100
    1.2 channel master/quad feedhorn/36volt /vbox
    1 fixed dish, and 1 motorized 1mtr dish
    and a pile of redundant cards/cams

    Is your dish aligned correctly? If the dish is algined correctly you shouldn't have any issues provided you input your correct longitude and latitude.

    It is also important that you set the Lnb to the same number as the position ....for eg..28.2e stored position 1 set Lnb to Lnb1...then 19.2e stored pos.2 set the Lnb to Lnb2...then 16.0e stored pos.3 set the Lnb to Lnb3 and so on for each Sat. found.

    hope this is of help..
