Setting the Elevation on the Dish
After you have securely attached the reflector to the support arm, you
need to set the dish to point up toward the satellite. This is called
"setting the elevation."
1. Loosen the two elevation nuts so the support sleeve can rotate.
2. Rotate the support sleeve so that the elevation indicator lines up
with the tick mark corresponding to the elevation setting you
recorded earlier.
3. Tighten both nuts.

Make sure that you use the

the nut to line up the
elevation. If your elevation is
not correctly set, you won't
be able to obtain a signal.
