1. Satellite Alignment

After physical installation, the antenna requires precise alignment to receive satellite signals. This process involves adjusting the antenna's azimuth (horizontal angle) and elevation (vertical angle).

  • Use the provided compass to determine the approximate direction of the desired satellite (e.g., Astra 19.2°E, Hotbird 13°E).
  • Connect the antenna to your satellite receiver and TV. Access the signal strength/quality meter on your receiver.
  • Slowly adjust the antenna horizontally and vertically until maximum signal strength and quality are achieved. Fine-tuning is crucial for optimal reception, especially in adverse weather conditions.
