Sorry, no, I have no motorized dish! What I have is something very
mobile on a tripod, in the backyard. I have made a simple GTK program
that shows signal and snr levels as bars, and trim the position of the
dish by hand, checking when signal is at a peak. If zigzag is
disabled, the system works quite well.
