longitude and latitude

[danielcjh]

so i have a f5s and im trying to setup the motor on it,ive pointed it to the signal and that works,when i tell it to point to a diff satalite it does move but comes up no signal,so i tell it to go back to the previous satalite and it moves and picks up the signal again,i then got as far as the longitude and latitude,i have found on the net how to pinpoint my long and lat,but the numbers it gives back i cant put in my settings,as the numbers dont match for example 58.441338 needs to go in to 000.00 the point is in the wrong place? so how would that work.if theres a guide for this box for setting up a motor could someone please point me in the right direction,many thanks

It's the best place to start! It's not a easy hobby but enjoyable

You don't need that many decimal places!

Just round the number up/down. For 58.441338, enter 058.44
