2 Place the enclosed SATELLITE MAP on the ground
in line with your dish and with the SOUTH arrow
aligned correctly with the aid of the compass.
3 Set the elevation of the dish vertical from
horizontal (the dish has an offset designed in its
construction). Look at the dish from the side, if the
top and bottom is in line with a vertical line from
the ground this is the starting point.
4 Move the dish to be in line with the marking for
ASTRA 1 28E on your SATELLITE MAP.
5 When moving the dish try to remember you must
keep the elevation as previously set, only adjust
the horizontal direction for now as indicated above.
Fine tuning
It is at this point you rely on the audible signal
generated from your receiver and through the TV, turn
the sound up so you can hear it from the dish location.
It is quite likely you still only have 36 – 37% signal
intensity and 10 – 11% quality. The dish is pointing
slightly towards the south, and not at the satellite.
Carefully follow the fine tuning instructions.
Remember do not adjust the elevation at this point, it
should be set at vertical when viewed from the side.
1 Turn the dish on the horizontal plane towards the
east (left as viewed from behind), 2 or 3 mm at a
time and then wait to hear the audible signal
indicator change, wait for two or three seconds,
adjust 2 or 3 mm and wait again, after the second
or third adjustment you should hear a change in
the sound level, its a good idea to have a friend
relaying the signal intensity and quality reading
during this stage.
