Using usuals Do I need to increase or decrease Longtitude

longstack · Jul 18th 2014

I live in West wales and I am setting up a Motorised Dish. I input my coordinates then set up using 5west. When I use Usuals I always find the dish is always out and I have to move the dish a few degrees west to fine tune each Satellite.
If I change my coordinates at the start would I increase or decrease the Longitude.

I wish someone could tell me it would save hours of messing about.

so goto your west settings in usals and change it up and see if it getts better or worse
if worse then lower the number until you get best signal possible.

Leave your coordinates as they should be and physically move the dish, it isn't aligned correctly if you have to alter your coordinates.
