Final Approach
5. AFTER YOU GET A SIGNAL, continue adjusting the azimuth
(compass direction) by rotating the dish in small increments
left and right until you achieve the highest possible signal
strength.
6. Tighten the support sleeve nuts so the dish will not rotate
left and right.
7. Slightly loosen the elevation nuts on the LNB support arm so
you can adjust the dish up and down.
8. Restart the signal meter.
9. Adjust the elevation of the dish upward and downward until
you achieve the highest possible signal strength.
Move the dish upward one tick mark, pause for 5 seconds,
and check the signal strength.
Move the dish downward (back to the original position) and
then down one tick mark, pause for 5 seconds, and check the
signal strength.
When the dish is pointed so the highest signal strength is
displayed on the signal meter, tighten the elevation nuts on
the LNB support arm.
