[QUOTE="Mickha, post: 1115531, member: 187442"] If you would please post a few pictures, of the front of your dish, and the side, as requested, the problem might be obvious. The bracket angles, are only a guide, to help with initial setup. I use a very basic meter: [ATTACH]137458[/ATTACH] This meter is very simple to use, and only lights up if the cable, and connections, are working. By adjusting the sensitivity, using the knob, you can get it to beep even if the dish is facing the ground, you then adjust the sensitivity, until it reads about 5, adjust the dish, until it reaches 10, then once again decrease the sensitivity, until it reads 5, adjust the dish, until it reads 10, and keep doing this until you have the strongest signal. Once you have the East/West reading the strongest it can be, you adjust the elevation, using the same method. Once done you scan in channels, on your receiver, to see which satellite you're aligned to. [/QUOTE]
