Antenna Pointing
1) Begin by obtaining the correct Az/El pointing data for the satellite of interest based for your site location.
2) Using an inclinometer or position readout form controller placed on the enclosure drum surface, position the
antenna to the specified elevation angle.
3) Manually scan the antenna (back-and-forth in the azimuth around the direction of the specified azimuth
angle) to achieve the maximum transponder signal.
4) Next repeat the procedure for elevation.
5) Repeat this procedure alternating between the azimuth and elevation until maximum transponder signal is
achieved.
