Are you setting up a motorised dish? Dishpointer.com will give you your long/lat as well as other helpful info.

no

i have 2 sats up one 13e and one 28.2e
i was just getting confused with the setting on the sat setup on box

you want to set 54.6 north for your latitude on both the stb and the motor and these will not need adjusting again.5.9 West will need putting in the stb only and may need adjusting 0.2 degrees at a time either way to max the signal,do this after setting up the motor/dish assembly outside and tightening everything up.

sorry just read your last post if you do not have a motor you do not need to input lat/long into the box.

how are you recieving 13E and 28.2E?

[belfastdaren]

fixed

2 fixed dishes one at 28.2 and the other 13e i beleve a disque switch , do i still not need the lang and long settings ?
waiting on spiderbox 9000hd comming so hopefully that will be better than mu open box

you do not need lat and long settings on a fixed dish

as said long and lat not needed but you will have to set up diseqc 1.0 in the installation/sat search menu.28.2E will be say port 1 and 13E say port 2 if blank screen change 28.2E to port 2 & 13E to port 1.

[what about donegal rubbish sky here

Hello johny and welcome to DK. I'm not sure what your question is /whether you are on free to air channels via sky or are paying sky for a fuller service. A little more information will help you get a better reply. Such as the above mentioned sky or do you want to point your dish elsewhere and the type of satellite box you have and even the dish size or some particular programmes such as sport etc.
