    cant offer direct help,

    but the dish needs to be poiting at almost true south,
    the motor needs to be set to your location, ( approx 52.000 north )
    on your unit,..select BBC World
    then elivate or drop the dish until a piccy shows

    the dish arm/motor body should be in a straight line

    1 fixed dish, and 1 motorized 1mtr dish
    and a pile of redundant cards/cams
