Best tutorial I’ve seen yet, I wasted 2 hrs in chat yesterday got zero help

Having flashbacks! I definitely think this should aid anyone who's struggling a little or becoming frustrated with almost getting a signal & then losing it & not sure why.

Sounds like a great explanation! I'm trying it!!

Those inexpensive satellite meters that just tell you the signal strength with a needle on them are a great help and are less than $20 . It's not worth wasting time trying to do it with the built in meter on the TV for that price. I used mine to align ours on the house in the UK and it's been on the wall for 15 years . The only time the picture breaks up is in a thunderstorm.

Have a Shaw Direct 800 series box, brand new, Used it at one location without issues. Moved to a second location 5 minutes up the road. Hooked it up to a dish that was prepointed and all I get is bouncing signal from 0 to 65 even if I move the dish totally off the satelite where I should only get 0, the numbers still bounce all over the place. Any help or idea is appreciated.

Make sure there are washers on elevation with the bevel edge facing the scale and the same for your skew

Got a link to that finder app, so many to choose from

Done this for awhile now.. But went thru an issue with a friend's dish. Had all my numbers lined up, but hitting 60 then it just went crazy going to 18 - 0 and other digits. But as far as 60.

Makes fine tuning easier and doesn’t mess up the paint so you can see the scale if you are cahanging locations east to west or north and south

The most fun part is the soft yelling betwenn you and your buddy. It's like kids trying to figure out toys 😀😃

[ghorner]

Which channel is the best one to tune the dish on?

[petersack]

Hello, ! i am on Shaw, in eastern Central Alberta Canada. The dish, got moved in the wind, and requires re-aligning. The website, doesn't give very good elevation /azimuth / skew numbers for my area. Is there a way, to find them ? Thanks, for education. !

[KieraCameron]

I wish I could get Shaw Direct in the U.S. because I love Canadian T.V.

[williamdougie]

I just got a new roof and the signal is out. Will Shaw charge me a realignment fee?

[davidkurzdorfer]

Shaw dishes are great free to air satellite dishes get lots of great free channels

Or you could align it by watching it on tv. No signal? No alignment
