[Moon-net] Array Pointing Accuracy

[Dave Anderson, K4SV]

Hi All,
 
I have another question that I would ask to have answered.  I have just erected a new H frame festooned with 4 M2 2MXP20's.  As I tweak this antenna system I thought it would be nice to know exactly how close must I track the Moon.  The obvious question is, of course, right on the moon.  But you and I both know not every antenna system tracks exactly, there is always some positioning error in the rotors ETC.  Just so I am clear on this, what is the acceptable pointing accuracy so I can keep within the maximum gain?
 
I have played a bit by jockeying the antenna around to see if I can peak the signal and it seems to be a bit broad.
 
Thanks in advance,
