Acquiring and Fine Tuning the Signal

Adjusting the Azimuth and Elevation Settings

1.Using a compass, rotate the dish so that the LNB arm points to the correct azimuth heading. Loosen the support sleeve nuts as needed. (Sony dish owners loosen the mast clamp screws.)

2.If you do not hear a continuous tone from the signal meter, use the following procedure to adjust the dish until you hear one continuous tone:

•At the top of the mast is a piece of tape with evenly spaced tick marks. Carefully rotate the dish one tick mark to the right and pause for 3-5 seconds.

•If you do not hear a continuous tone, rotate the dish back to the original position and then one tick mark to the left and pause for 3-5 seconds.

•Continue rotating the dish one tick mark at a time further right and left from center (making sure to pause for 3-5 seconds at each position) until you hear the continuous tone, and the highest signal meter reading.

4.After you get a signal, continue adjusting the azimuth by rotating the dish in small increments left and right until you achieve the highest possible strength.

5.Tighten the support sleeve nuts so the dish won’t rotate left and right.
