Where are you getting ESPN and ESPN2? In the 70s or 200s.
If you are getting the 70s you're ok on 119 but off for the 99 / 103.

Thanks. I was wondering about the numbered wheels.flipptyfloppity said:There are two settings to fine tune, the big bolts with numbered wheels you see. All you really do is adjust one until the values peak, then adjust the other to peak, then go back to the first to peak again, and go around a few times.
You do this on the Ka (99c/103c) satellites after doing it on the Ku satellutes (101/119). Tilt doesn't come into play much, if you want to adjust it, know that it's a distant third in importance.
You won't believe how wide the 101/119 beams are compared to the Ka beams when you start adjusting for Ka. You can easily turn the adjustment bolts 2 times around without affecting the 101/119 figures noticeably, while the Ka numbers will have changed over 20 pts.
Don't forget to loosen the lockdown bolts for azimuth and elevation before starting the adjustment process.
