Dish Antenna Installation

Note: If you cannot find the signal, turn the dish back to the first azimuth angle. Then, loosen both elevation bolts just enough so you can tilt the dish. Tilt the dish elevation up by two degrees, and then tighten both bolts. Now, turn the dish back and forth again. If you still can’t find the signal, tilt the dish up again very slightly and turn the dish back and forth until you find the signal. Do not change the skew setting.

19.When the signal strength bar is green, turn the dish back and forth just a little, to where the signal strength bar shows the strongest signal. When you find the strongest signal, tighten both mast clamp bolts. Then loosen both elevation bolts, just enough so you can tilt the dish. Tilt the dish up and down just a little, to where the signal strength bar shows the strongest signal. When you find the strongest signal, tighten all bolts in the dish assembly so the dish cannot be moved.
