According to my info Orange is: Elevation 43 and azmith 137.
What I do is check with a compass to get that general azmith direction (137)to point it to. The fact that you get the 775 thing means you are getting something, just not enough to operate it properly yet. As said, go to the on screen menu, listen for the beeps and when they speed up to maximum you are there. Usually 70 to 80% is fine. Thats how I do mine.
Yes it is frustating and I have cussed many times getting it right. When you get the speeding up beeps just v-e-r-y slowly move it a tiny bit up or down or sideways to get the best percentage signal. Hope this helps.
