Tuning Antenna
STEP 1. Your receiver should indicate it is receiving a signal. To tune
your antenna for the best signal strength. SLOWLY move the antenna
left, then right, until you have found the position that gives the highest
signal strength. It is important to turn the antenna slowly. Because
the signal is digital, the receiver takes a few seconds to lock on.
STEP 2. Place rotation clamp in the LOCK position. This prevents an
tenna movement and loss of signal.
STEP 3. SLOWLY raise, then lower the antenna until you have peaked
the signal. You are now ready to watch satellite TV!

STEP 3. Turn elevating crank counter clockwise in direction of DOWN
