POINTING THE SATELLITE DISH
3. Obtain the azimuth value from page 6 of this manual.
4. Use a compass to locate and line up the azimuth bearing.
Rotate the satellite dish in azimuth (sideways) until the sat-
ellite dish is pointed at the magnetic bearing. Use a pencil to
mark the location onto the mast, and label this mark "1."
Mark the location on the AZ-EL cap, directly above Mark 1.
This will be the azimuth alignment mark. (See Figure 52.)
Make another mark on the mast 3/4-inch to the right of
Mark 1 and label it "2." Make another mark on the mast
3/4-inch to the left of Mark 1 and label it "3."
5. Stand behind the satellite dish and point the front of the sat-
ellite dish to the left of the estimated bearing to the satellite
so the azimuth alignment mark lines up with Mark 2.
