Excellent, thought it should be - it being sly n all - good to know to give adjustments to 1w first...

Thanks again...

Yes, try to make sure that you are in the centre of the beam, and not on the edge of it.

I'm not sure if this is the quickest way, but what I do for the azimuth is alter the position of 0.8W in USALS both sides of 0.8W until I get a certain drop in signal quality, and check that 0.8W is the centre position. The same can be done manually outside with the dish elevation.
