Steps To Install Satellite Dish
To get the satellite dish at good offer and price you might have shopped for it. You may wish to hire someone to install the dish for you or if you are lucky, some retailer dealers offer satellite dish installers free of charge. However not every buyer is accorded this privilege by the retailer. it actually depends on the buyer to set the dish. here follows some steps to install the satellite dish.
to install the satellite dish you required satellite signal meter, complete satellite system, RG6 coax cable, 7/16″ wrench, ?” nut driver bit, zip ties or black tape, staples or screw clips, 6″ magnetic level or post level, 2″ lag bolts, and compass.
Look for a suitable place around your compound to raise the dish. The site should have clear sky line and be able face the direction as instructed. It should be free from any interference especially when it comes to searching of signal. the next step of installing the satellite dish is to bold the mast from every direction very firmly by using the level. Make sure that the bolt is tight keeping in mind that it should be plumb.
the next step is to place the antenna dish on the mast but the bolts should not be tightened. next put coax cable through dish and then out to LNBF to connect cable. Then bolt the LNBF to the dish. Do not tighten the bolts to much. now read the manual guidance for installing the satellite dish in order to confirm the correct skew and raise the dish according to locality. it would be easy to place the receiver accordingly if the neighbor too has the satellite dish.
now connect the coax cable to the meter and turn the television on for confirming the signals if the meter is not available if you. then turn the dish to the instructed direction given in the manuals for satellite dish installation and then check the meter until the satellite signal is being located or look at the neighbors dish. after getting the signals just bolt the dish. you can adjust it horizontally and also vertically. now let the reflector of the dish rotate freely.
Now it is time to determine the strong signal by moving the reflector up and down. and then take coax from dish to receiver and connect it. then you can do the required test by connecting the receiver to your television and take the guidance of the manual given for installation of satellite dish.
