STEP 2. Plug in the receiver and TV.

STEP 3. Turn TV and receiver ON.

STEP 4. TuneTVto ch.3or 4(tothe samechannelas

STEP 5. Determine azimuth (direction) and elevation

required for your position. Refer to receiver manual.

STEP 6. Loosenclampknobs. Elevate reflectortothe

correct elevation. Align degree of elevation required

with front of the slide bracket. Each mark indicates 5

degrees of elevation with the first mark being 00 (mark

closesttocompass/level). SeeFigures1and2. Tighten

clamp knobs.

STEP 7. Level base using bubble level recessed into

the base.

STEP 8. Using compass recessed into base, rotate

thebase

slowly

(3oincrements)to the desired azimuth

(direction) for the high power satellites. The signal is

digital, you must wait a few seconds after each move to

allow the receiver to process the signal.

NOTE: Disregard the compass markings, the red

compass needle

always points North

. Rotate the

basesothattheotherendoftheneedlepointsatthe

NOT USE THE DEGREE MARKINGS ON THE

COMPASS.

NOTE: Ifyou have the unitsitting on a tailgateoron

othermetalitems,itisrecommendedthatyouremove

the compass from the base and stand away (15'

min.) to find the correct azimuth. Compass is

attached to base with velcro.

STEP 9. Adjust azimuth (direction) and elevation (up/

down) for strongest signal.

NOTE: Ifyoudonotgetapicture,checkthefollowing:

1. Make sure antenna has clear view of the high

power satellites, no buildings, trees, etc.

blocking the view.

2. Make sure coax connections are good.

3. Check coax for breaks, crimps, cuts etc.

4. If base is not level, you will have to adjust the

elevation to compensate.

5. Check that TV is tuned to correct channel.
