Try the FTA forum ... and let them know what satellites you are interested in receiving.

Looks like you didn't hardware setup; because the setup should give you access to Clark Belt, ie all satellites on geostationary orbit. Check Sadoun site how to do that.

Agreed. Here's the link to the motorized dish install page: http://www.sadoun.com/Sat/Installation/HH-mount-installation.htm
