Here is what I do and I have some great hatches from the LG.
Make sure room temp is constant. (this is most important) I have my incubator in the laundry room and I run my ac and keep the house at 79*. Get a replacement dimmer knob from walmart, it fits onto the turning stick on the LG . (99 cents) That way you can adjust the LG to fine tune it. I place two sponges on the sides of the water tray incase I need to up the humidity. I leave one plug in until lockdown, when I pull them both out and add water to the troughs. If humidity is not enough I will add more to one side of the sponges using a bent straw. If more is needed which it isn't in mine, I can add water to the other sponge. Before work and after work i will peek to see what the temp is. Mine stays pretty constant if the room temp is constant.
I use a turner when I am not incubating chicken eggs in my other LG. When I am not using an turnerr I will zip tie the quail rails to a 1/2 inch pvc pipe and turn them manually. If you can find a PC fan and mount it in the LG that helps tremendously. I would keep the top of the eggs at 101 if your using still air.
