  • A short video with a few tips on how to set up a motorised satellite system to receive a wide variety of TV channels from across Europe. It's quite brief and is intended for a friend who is having issues setting up his motorised system, but I hope that this covers the basics if you are looking at installing one for yourself! Please comment below if you have any further questions, and I'll do my best to answer. Bear in mind, that I'm not a professional installer, so take my advice at your own risk! ;)

    Hi, I have got a question. My dish is on dead straight and my motor is set to 0, so do I have to move the dish on the motor arm or on the L bracket to point the dish to 0.8 west??

    Hi, your video is very helpful, Sory to bother you. On the recever > USALS =
    I have
    location East
    Longitude 42.681
    Hemisphere south
    Latitude. 2.04
    Now do I set motor on 0.8 and find thore or set on 0 and find thore via left and right movement? Thanks

      Also as I have to set elevation of motor 42 now, do I have to put 42 or 52 in to receiver as my longitude is 52 according to the website you have recommended.
      Thanks

    Hello, 1 question for you, the 'elevation' scale on the motor, do you set that to exactly the latitude or is there any math. if no math do you know why they didn't just call it latitude? I'm arguing with my Brother.....

      The elevation is set to your latitude,

    hi. Can the computer move the antenna from one satellite to another? Or do I need a satellite moving unit?

      The meter can move it

    Where does the motor get its power from?

    • @eurovisioneruption870

      It's via the coax cable from the receiver. I think it's18 volts that's sent down the cable.
      I believe that older motors needed a separate power supply, but these days just the coax is enough... :)

      Many thanks for that

      Sorry one more question, How do you know what the required elevation is?

    • @eurovisioneruption870

      It's actually quite easy when you know the formula. Just put where you live into www.latlong.net/ which will tell you your latitude. Then to get the elevation, you just need to minus your latitude from 90... So, if your latitude was 50, it's be 90-50 = 40 for your elevation.

    Just curious about the elevation. You say its 90 degrees minus your latitude. My Lat is 50 deg so elevation is 40? If this is correct why is Astra at 26? Just asking.

      I guess im asking randomly but does anyone know a way to log back into an Instagram account??
