I would always start at 1w (to set your almost due south) then peak the dish with strong sats to the east and west (usually Astra 2 and Hispasat). When it tracks those three perfectly the dish is pretty much set. Then it's time to find and scan the other satellites.
Yeah I kind of metioned that to my brother last night after I discovered I couldn't get any sats on a west bearing, I mentioned that we should have went between Astra 2 and Hipasat. Oh well it'll have to wait till the weekend again to sort it out. Thanks for the info.
