2 Make sure
the sky towards the South is not screened by nearby obstacles
(trees, houses, etc.) which would prevent the signal being
received.

|
Since
all the main satellites (Astra, Hot-Bird, AB3) are positioned
on an orbit over the plane of the Equator, the dish must be
pointed in that direction, i.e. towards the South. |
 |
3 Set the exact
elevation of the dish; remember that the satellite is always
fixed on the Equator.
|
|
|
As
you move from North to South on the globe, the dish must be
angled more. For example, in Scandinavia, the dish must be angled
at 15° to point to the satellite, whereas in Morocco it
must be angled at 50° |
