According to the latitude of my location I'll find the declination angle. The mine is Lat 12, Elev Angle 78, Decl Angle 2.1, and Dish Brack Angl 27.9
The dish bracket I understand that it should be 27.9
But what to do with the motor latitude it begins with 15
Let say I'm pointing to Star One C2 that is on the true south from my location.
Any help?
Thanks.

Ok these are my ref:
Latitude = 12.5292, Longitude = -70.0069
Lat = 12 degrees, 31.8 minutes North
Long = 70 degrees, 0.4 minutes West
Pointing a satellite TV dish at the Satellite at 70 West orbit longitude
Dish elevation= 75.3, Azimuth= 189.2 (magnetic compass), Polarisation= -0.0
Polar mounts only: Main angle= 12.9, Downward tilt= 1.9, Motor drive sideways angle= 0.0
Now looking at the pic which is the Polarisation, Main Angle, the tilt and the sideways angle?
Thanks.

That is my problem my lat is 12 and there is no 12 degrees on the motor bracket it begins with 15. And now what?:noidea: I've to give up? Or should I modify it?:bump:
Any more suggestion?
Thanks.

Congrats on that you got it working, i've been following the thread but I don't know enough about those small dish motors to give any ideas.
