(Standing to near your vehicle can give incorrect compass readings.) It is helpful if there is a landmark on the horizon to represent North. Return to the vehicle and point the Directional Dial North, or to the landmark.

Tuning Antenna STEP 1. Your receiver should indicate it is receiving a signal. To tune your antenna for the best signal strength. SLOWLY move the antenna left, then right, until you have found the position that gives the highest signal strength. It is important to turn the antenna slowly. Because the signal is digital, the receiver takes a few seconds to lock on. STEP 2. Place rotation clamp in the LOCK position. This prevents an tenna movement and loss of signal. STEP 3. SLOWLY raise, then lowe

Signal from satellite Trouble Shooting 1. You may need to roatate the dish in small increments to find the signal. Rotate the dish 3° at a time to the left, stopping for a few seconds each Antenna Reflector at 90° time you move the dish. Try moving the dish up to 20° to the left. If no signal is found, return to the azimuth listed and and try rotating 20° to the right. This will help correct for any errors in setting the directional handle. 2. Be sure you have a clear line of sight. The signal f
