after spending 2 days working on on my 1m dish and sg2100 motor setup,here are some results from amc 1 ku. i still have some fine tuning to do,but,maybe next weekend. the lnb on the dish has absolutely "0" skew to achieve these results!
this is after i had to modify the mount inorder to get the dish and motor to work together and also to remove some stress off the motor.

i dedictaed the primestar to amc 1 ku today and tweaked it as far as i could. best i can get on the primestar is a 67 quality on the nbc-s2 feeds. i have also worked on the 1m dish and can most of the time get 82 quality on 11740 and high 70's on the other 2 nbc muxes. i'm on vacation this week and i'll have a day or two that i can try more tweaking.

Mack, in your sig it says the Primestar is an 84e and in your post you say it's a 1 meter. Which one are you using?
Edit...I guess if I had read the post just above it would have answered my question. With an 84e upper 60's are respectable numbers for NBC. For the 1 meter you should expect just a little more...I would want mid to upper 80's. With my 1.2 my numbers are similar to Hockey's...upper 90's and I have seen 100 before.

after more tweaking today this is the best i can get for nbc channels on amc 1 ku with the present setup. i think the dish is just too heavy for the sg2100 to get it any more tweaked as i have it now. i did have an 87 quality at 1 point,and then it dropped back to 77 and i believe it's just stressing on the motor to hold it in place.
