This is where a pic of the usals settings on the box would be very useful. Just for info this is what your tuner should look like. and green to save. You can drive motor to 0 in the image. Go menu setup tuner setup positioner, arrow down and make it west, OR EAST depends where you think dish is at present, then press Green button. Once at zero select a channel at 0.08west. use Al JAZEERA and you should get over 90%, if its less that 90 then you can go back to positioner and twek usalks either west or east, in fine steps, that will give a guide if you are out.

Can I take it you can reach dish easily but not now:laughing:

Its his motor I believe ongoing issue
Read here
 
Thank you guys for the help! Reset the motor and now usuals going the right way!

But I realised a bolt of my rig is loose so I need to fix that as I’m losing signal quality.

Just out of curiosity, on 16e ss channels. What signal percentage are people getting? On my viark it says 69% and works fine but on octagon is says 47%
 
Replaced rig and all seem good signal
Wise on 0.8w and 28.2e. Wondering what people get on ss on 16e. I’m seeing 67%. Is
That ok?

Size dish is that on for comparison ?

To be honest if figures given to you are from members outside your area then the info is not really of use.

Just flex the dish up and down and left to right a little if the signal level can not be improved on doing that your at the maximum you are going to get in your area.
