Wheres GTA? I found Bev real easy. If you have 110 ondish raise the elevation to 38,Move slowly to the left to 210.8/ Thats what worked for me.Good Luck.

Hi, Can anyone tell me (step by step) how to get BEV on a reciever which has only Echo 7 and Echo 3 pragrammed into it (these are the only choices available in the list of satellites). Also does it involve moving the dish physically? THX
P.S I live in GTA.I have a Fortecstar Classic NA

nimiq is 38deg, you should be at 6deg. thats a differance of 32deg. your actual mounted elev. is -20. so add 32deg to -20 = 12deg.

I posted a question believing that this forum is about helping people with their FTA problems. I guess not. It's prbably only for bi*tching, name calling, raccist remarks and for people behaving like 10 year old delinquints.

I am not whining. You are just being dramatic. I didn't hijack YOUR precious thread. This one was about BEV and how to get it by moving your dish. Stop being so possesive about things that don't belong to you.
