Problem With Channels on 16East With New diseqc motor and a twin Lmb/Help Please

[tinbin]

I need your advice please to do with channels on 16East, .I bought my husband a 1 meter Dish and a diseqc motor and a twin LMB, the man who fitted it had a struggle getting the channels to open with the new system on the VU+. Before the new system my husband could see his football on it ,he had a Triax 90 m dish and he had a echostar 3000ip to move the old dish .And when he got to 16Est he would turn that off and turn the VU+ on to see the channels.
The signal goes off when you get on 16East, and when you try and pull the signal on it soon drops .I have After going east and west with Positioner fine movement and I have got a strong signal back again, I then I go down to Positioner Storage and then press green to store the new position .It does seem to save the position when I press save, but I then move to a channel and you can see the signal drop, every other satellite I move the dish to on the VU+ it goes to the satellite of choice and all the channels work ok.Can any one solve this please.

I suspect that you have USALs set up in your tuner config, if this is so, your "saved" position would be ignored, but saying that, if USALs are set to "use USALs for this sat" ( in your tuner config ) and if you are getting 19/13 east, its likely that your east west setting needs a slight adjusment +/- .5 of a degree, the alternitive, is to disable USALs there is an option in your tuner config "use USALs for tis sat" set it to NO, find 16 east, and save position as 016...( if you do the same for other sats..ie, 19 east, with USALs disabled, find 19 east, and save position as 019
