FINDING THE DIRECTION AND ELEVATION
When determining the approximate location of the satellites, you need to find the azimuth (South, Southeast, or Southwest direction to the satellites) and elevation (angle up to the satellites) from your location. "Azimuth" is also called "direction." This Guide uses the term "direction".
Finding the satellites is easy. You first need to connect the recorder to your TV, and turn on the recorder and TV. Tune your TV to channel 3 or 4. See Wiring Setups on page
Use the Point Dish and Signal Strength menu to find the direction and elevation of the satellites from your location. After you complete the installation of the satellite antenna, you can then
