    Well after waiting for better weather, today I manage to finish the setup. I decided to use the 8115 DRO norsat lnb for c-band instead of the old norsat gold, witch came with the dish. I preferred this DRO over a 5150F PLL i also have, but I had to use an elbow, so I can fit the cover.

    Finally after waiting for a better weather, Today I managed to finish the setup. I replaced the old norsat gold witch came with the dish, with a norsat 8115 DRO (3.4-4.2Ghz). Preferred this over 5150F PLL (3.7-4.2Ghz). I had to use an elbow so I can fit the cover over the corotor.

    Until. Why not rotate the feed 90 degrees? Making H>V & V>H?
    Or am I missing something?

    So, when selecting a channel scanned on H tp, the servo will move the probe on V position and it will show nothing on the screen... I replaced the servo with a genuine chaparral on my old corotor 2, and looks like every thing is back to normal.
    Had hard time to check the angle of the scalar to be parallel to the dish plate as the dish is high on the due south position.
    My due south geo position is at 83°w, but AMC9 is not anymore there. I have AMC9 with a fake tp in my sat list, just to check what I need when the polar axis is at zenith. The closest sat is at 82°w (Bell), and is Ku, but there is signal on one tp I can use.
