ok now I have a problem, i watched some videos on utube and decided to adjust azimuth n elevation myself.

.

1 )Now, which shud I consider lower bolt or the upper one ?

2) elevation for ses7 is 42.4 , but if i consider lower one, the elevation is somehwt close to 48, is that acceptable...as the marking is not there for 40 degrees.

(pls zoom in d image.... taken from my 8 MP phone :D)

3) or shud if i consider the above row, ?

4) most important :: see those earlier marks of the bolts (in rust), those were when the dish was aligned to abs1/insat 4cr.

now the elevation of abs1 is 56.6, but neither top nor bottom bolts is @56.6.
lower one is @ 30, and top bolt is @ arnd 38.

Am i doing somethin wrong ?? Cud someonw explain, how to check bolts and their markings for proper elevation.
