ONLY MOVE THE LNB ARM BY 2 OR 3 MM AT A

TIME, IF YOU MOVE IT TOO MUCH YOU WILL

GO PAST THE SATELLITE AND NO SIGNAL

CHANGE WILL BE NOTED. IF YOU STAND IN

FRONT OF THE DISH YOU WILL BLOCK THE

SIGNAL, GET OUT OF THE WAY TO CHECK

SIGNAL READINGS.

2 What you are trying to achieve at this point is an

increase in the signal quality (the intensity will take

care of itself). As you move the dish past the

satellite the quality will go down (usually

accompanied by a reduction in the audible tone).

3 If all is well you have just located the satellite, you

have gone from a low signal to the south of the

satellite to a low signal to the east of the satellite.

This typically takes place with no more than a 10 to

15 mm movement in the LNB arm (quite a fine

adjustment), it is easy to see now why just moving

the dish about and hoping will not work.

4 Move the dish direction back towards the south to

achieve maximum signal quality (this still may be

quite low 14 to 18%), you now have the direction

fine tuned.

5 Now concentrate on the elevation, without moving

the direction slowly move the LNB arm near the

dish up thereby increasing the elevation from the

horizon, yet again a peak will be noticed as you go

past the optimal point, move the dish back down to

achieve max signal quality.

6 You have now narrowed the alignment to a small

area, move the dish horizontally to the left until the

signal falls, and then back to the right until the

signal falls, in the middle is the correct alignment,

if you go over this again first with the horizontal,

and then the vertical you will have pinpointed the
