Fine tune VU Solo

[chris1]

I have a problem with my setting on BBC1 I am getting 35% snr but when I go menu/set up/service searching/positioner set up, then down to positioner fine movement, I just move it a couple of times on step west then I get 90% so I then go down to positioner storage, press green button (store position) I then exit all the way out but then I found out that it has not saved it? what am I doing wrong?

have you got USALs enabled?? if so, your saved setting would be over ruled by USAL,s....look in your tuner config...and make sure that USALs is set to "no"

They are set to no on usuals on 28.2 and set on advanced m8 do I after set limits in positioner set up?

[basilyoung]

in that case...find 28 east, save to position 28, press ok, and that should do it, although if you activate USALs, and change your east / west setting by a few degrees, either side of the correct setting....that should also fix your problem

so I go to positioner get a good signal on 28 deg then go down to positioner storage press green come out go to reception settings down to bottom line and save at 28?

yes, think thats correct,...but as said, USALs are a better option

Dish must be out a bit can never get 90% with Usuals

[basilyoung]

just change your east or west setting from say 001.500 east ( or west ) to 002.500 if worse change it to 000.500

trust me...its worth it

so in advanced I just change bottom line to yes for usuals & save

ps
What is the simples configuration mode for?

[basilyoung]

that will give a unilattrial setting for all sats....with usals working....the dish will find all sats you have enabled...with advanced, you select the sats you want, and select USALs for each sat..which would workn off your base USAL settings ( best )
