[QUOTE="Mickha, post: 890304, member: 187442"] All you need is a cheap satellite meter, evne one for about £6 will do. Once connected, you get a signal, by turning the knob to the left, to increase sensitivity, until the meter reads about 5, then slowly move your dish, until it shoots up to 10, you then turn the knob to the right, to decrease sensitivity, and get it back to 5, gently move your dish, until it reads 10, then decrease sensitivity until it reads 5 again. Keep doing this until you get the strongest signal possible, then adjust the dish elevation, again adjusting the meter, until you get the strongest signal, then check your receiver to see which satellite you're aligned to. It will also determine if the cables, and LNB, are working as the meter will light up, a useful method of checking everything is working, on your set up. [ATTACH]66018[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
