FINDING THE SATELLITE

1.Be sure to connect the cables to the TV, receiver and antenna before accessing satellite signal, and connect to your power source.

2.Check the instruction manual that came with your receiver to determine how to access the on-screen signal meter.

The signal meter shows you when you have locked onto a satellite broadcast signal and gives the signal strength. Be sure you select your type of dish antenna — pointing coordinates will depend on the type of dish you have.

3.Azimuth value is determined by the local zip code of your location. Enter into your receiver menu.

4.Rotate compass dial until azimuth value aligns with the blue arrow.

5.Turn compass to align red pointer arrow to red “N”.
