Identify a reference point on the horizon like a tree, utility pole or
other landmark that lines up with the compass reading. Installers
often find it easier to align the dish if they can reference an object
that has been identified with the compass reading. If you cannot
locate a visual reference, stretch a 10 - 20 foot rope out in front of
the dish in the direction of the compass reading pointing towards the
satellite.
Move directly behind the dish and align the dish so that the LNBF
arm is aimed directly at the reference landmark or in line with the
rope. Semi-tighten the post clamp nuts, but allow the dish to be just
loose enough to be rotated left or right by applying light pressure.
Example: Compass Reading 180 degrees.
