Verify Azimuth alignment
S witch to S at B (1 19WL) on your on-screen menu, using
Transponders 23, 25 , 29 or 31. Verify that signal is also
peaked at 119WL by very slightly rotating the antenna around
the penciled marking on the mast. Once satisfied, tighten the
two Azimuth/Mast clamp bolts.
NOTE: S at B (1 19WL) signal strength may read different than
S at A (10 1WL) signal strength, depending on the satellite
transmission patterns in the area. You only need to see
whether S at B (1 19WL) is peaked and not try to compare signal
strength numbers. It's OK to be close but not at the peaks for
both locations simultaneously.
Fine-tune the Elevation
Use Sat B (1 19WL) or Sat A (101 WL) on-screen signal meter.
While holding the LNB Arm, slightly loosen the two E levation
bolts and two Pivot bolts. Move it up/down slightly and observe
the signal strength on the screen. Find the peak and tighten the
two E levation bolts and two Pivot bolts.
Verify satellite signals
Confirm the final signal-peak readings at all three satellite
locations. Sat C (11 0WL, Transponders 8 , 10 and 1 2.) should
be aligned automatically.
NOTE 1: Occasionally, you may see a transponder at Sat A
(101WL), S at B (119WL) or Sat C (110WL) not active, it is
possible that this transponder is reserved for upcoming
programming expansion. S witch to other transponders at the
same satellite location to verify that you have good readings and
that your antenna alignment is satisfactory.
NOTE 2: In most of the U.S., the Tilt Adjustment should be
fixed. However, because of large Tilt angle to 119WL satellite
in E astern S eaboard states, a small amount of Tilt fine-tuning
adjustment may improve 11 9WL signal strength without
significantly changing 10 1WL signal reading. For these states,
the following Tilt fine-tuning procedures are recommended:
1. Follow alignment procedures from S tep 1 through S tep 9;
 tighten Elevation bolts, Pivot bolts and Mast clamp bolts.
2. Fine-tune Tilt Adjustment first by +3 degrees and then
 -3 degrees. Tilt is optimized when you see the 101WL
 signal reading essentially unchanged and 1 19WL signal
 strength improved by several points. S et Tilt to the
 optimized point and tighten Tilt bolts.
