Self-configuration satellite dish quite a feasible task. How difficult is it? Depends on the approach to this issue. And any question for the right approach always solvable.

I tried to present the material in detail, step by step, in an accessible language - a kind of instruction for "dummies". So that a person who even has no idea what SAT TV is, could also get a positive result.

A bit of theory

How does satellite TV work? I'll try succinctly and briefly, if possible. Satellite television is a system where a television signal is transmitted from a transmitting center to a consumer through an artificial earth satellite. Television satellites are located in geostationary low-earth orbit above the equator.

Geostationary orbit (GSO) is a circular orbit located above the equator of the Earth (0 ° latitude), in which an artificial satellite revolves around the planet with an angular velocity equal to the angular velocity of the Earth's rotation around its axis.

In the horizontal coordinate system, the direction to the satellite does not change either in azimuth or in height above the horizon; the satellite "hangs" motionless in the sky. Geostationary orbit is a type of geosynchronous orbit and is used to place artificial satellites (communication, telecast, etc.).

The satellite should rotate in the direction of the Earth's rotation, at an altitude of 35,786 km above sea level. It is this altitude that provides the satellite with an orbital period equal to the period of rotation of the Earth relative to the stars (Excerpt from Wikipedia).

As a result, it turns out that TV broadcast satellites are always in one place, and do not go anywhere, transmitting a TV signal to us. We only have to tune our satellite dish to the satellite of interest to us to receive a television signal.

Let's go to practice

We assemble directly the satellite dish itself. Usually in the box with accessories, there is an instruction. Even if it's not there, I'm sure you can handle it. All bolts and nuts must be tight. Do not tighten only the direct fastening of the converter (gun) itself and the bolts responsible for the vertical angle of inclination of the satellite dish.

Attach the converter itself in the middle of the mount, if it is long enough, and you wondered, but how to fix it? Away from the satellite dish, or closer? Place the cable outlet in the converter perpendicular to the ground. We will tighten all this immediately after we achieve, during the setup, maximum values signal strength and quality.

Choosing a location for installing a satellite dish

The satellite dish is assembled, we are looking for a place to install it. The set usually comes with a wall mount. Accordingly, you need to choose the “right” wall. The wall bracket is attached to the south side of the house. Determining the wall we need is quite simple. The sun shines on her at lunchtime. For confidence in the right choice the direction of the antenna to the satellite of interest to us, we survey the surroundings in search of nearby satellite antennas.

Almost all of them look a little plus or minus in one direction. We saw not far from you a satellite dish with or without the Tricolor logo, but with a diameter of 55-60 cm, great, this is probably the 56th degree of east longitude. If you tune Tricolor TV Siberia or NTV plus Vostok, your tuned antenna will point exactly in the same direction.

Installation of a bracket for a satellite dish.

The bracket must be fixed firmly and tightly, but not dangle in any way. I usually use the following hardware.

For brick, concrete and wood. Plumbing screw with a 17 or 13 turnkey head.

For an antenna with a diameter of 90 cm, in a standard situation, a length of 5-6 cm is quite enough.

I just screw it into a tree, and into concrete or brick, making holes with a puncher, I put plastic dowels. The dowel manufacturer does not matter. Branded at 30 rubles apiece or, more simply, for one and a half rubles, it does not matter.

When installing the satellite antenna bracket on foam concrete, aerated concrete, sibit, I use special dowels.

If the house is sheathed with siding, I purchase long plumbing screws and make spacers from metal pipes. Having cut or drilled holes in the siding of sufficient diameter for the tube to pass, I calculate the required length of the spacers. Leaning against the wall, the tube should stick out about a centimeter beyond the siding. Well, then it's a matter of technology. We string the bracket onto the bolts, then the spacers made of metal tubes, and we pull the structure to the wall. When tightening the plumbing screws, the bracket rests against the spacers protruding from the siding. And the siding remains beautiful and unnoticed.

I also use spacers in some cases to further extend the bracket from the wall. There are times when, when setting up a satellite dish, the edge of the dish rests against the wall of the house, and the antenna does not have enough turn to the satellite. By increasing the distance between the wall and the bracket using spacers, I increase the angle of rotation of the satellite dish.

There are cases when the antenna mount must be fixed in metal. Let's admit. a vertically standing metal beam. In these cases, I use self-tapping screws for metal with a drill, with a hex head. They are also drilled. After completing the installation task, fixing the satellite dish conscientiously, we move on.

Preparing the receiver for setting up a satellite dish.

As a tuning device we will use satellite receiver(receiver), which we purchased in the kit, and our own TV set, and it would also be nice to bring up Mikhalych's neighbor or beloved wife to the process. When choosing an assistant for yourself, for tuning a satellite dish, first of all, pay attention to whether the candidate for assistant has the following qualities. Benevolence, calmness, resistance to stress in non-standard situations. Choose the best candidate, in a hopeless situation, take the one who is at hand. Of course, you can set it up in one person, but it's more fun together.

We mount the antenna on the mounting bracket, then connect the satellite receiver to the TV. Now we need to make the receiver visible to the TV. To do this, you need to connect the receiver to the TV using one of the methods suggested by the manufacturer of the satellite receiver.

On the back panel of our technique, we study the methods available to us:HDMI;

scart - scart (comb);

RCA (tulips);

Y, Pb, Pr (tulips);

scart - tulip;

RF OUT (RF output connection via coaxial cable).

Having connected the option we have chosen and turning on all the equipment in the network, we, by pressing the menu button located on the receiver's remote control, should see this menu on the TV screen. If the menu is not displayed, then something is wrong. Remember that usually every TV connector is signed. In order for the TV to “see” the satellite receiver, we must correctly display the selected connection method using the TV remote control.
Usually, the buttons of the following format are responsible for choosing the method of connecting any equipment to the TV.

The following options are written or drawn on the button or under the button:

- a rectangle with an arrow going inside.

We find our option, and we achieve the display of the menu image on the television screen, by pressing the button of the same name on the remote control of the satellite receiver. Next, we need to display the display of the power and signal quality scales on the screen. The general scheme of operations for all satellite receivers is approximately the same.

1. Menu and OK.

2. Select the item Installation, or Installation and OK.

3. Perhaps, once again select the item Installation, or Installation and OK.

4. And we get into the window where two scales are displayed at the bottom of the screen.

Let's consider the window view using the example of the budget receiver with the Galaxy Innovations GI S1025 card reader, which is widespread in Novosibirsk.

What should we have on and off? Usually, to tune a satellite dish to one satellite, by default, all the settings in the satellite receivers are set as we need it. In the first line, we just have to choose the name of the satellite to which we are going to tune the satellite dish.
For Rainbow TV - ABS 2 _Ku 75.0 ° E this is a new satellite. Since the satellite appeared recently, it can be spelled out as ABC_1 Ku 75 E
For and Telecards - Intelsat 15 85.2 ° E.
For Tricolora TV Siberia and NTV plus Vostok - Express AT1 56.0 ° E.

In the second line LNB type, the type of the converter is indicated. For Rainbow TV, Continent and Telekarta, a universal Ku-band linear polarization converter is used. In the settings in this line, universal should be selected, that is, the local oscillator frequencies are 9750 MHz and 10600 MHz.
For Tricolor TV Siberia and NTV plus Vostok, a universal Ku-band circular polarization converter is used. The line should contain the local oscillator frequency 10750 MHz.

DISEqC is off by default. You don't need to turn it on, this setting is used when we tune a satellite dish to several satellites.

The positioner is off by default. You don't need to turn it on.

22 kHz is off by default. You don't need to turn it on.

0/12 V Must be on or auto

Polarization Auto Do not change anything here either

Tone - signal off.

LNB Power Must be on.

Having achieved the display of the power and quality scales on the TV screen, we connect the coaxial cable from the converter to the receiver. Pre-screwing the F-connectors (connectors) onto the cable.

An accessible and understandable video, thanks to the author. I only recommend leaving the central core longer, 5-6 mm, so that the F-connector "sits" on it when screwing.

Usually, when a coaxial cable is connected, and the receiver settings are correctly set, the power scale displays the converter “seen” by the receiver, in the form of a scale increase in percentage.

I strongly recommend screwing the F-connectors to the converter and the satellite receiver by hand, without any keys or pliers.

Going into the transponder editor, you can select a specific transponder by which we will tune the satellite. What is it for? Some transponders come with a stronger signal, while others are weaker. The stronger transponder is easier to catch when tuning the satellite dish.

And also if your satellite receiver does not support the DVB-S2 standard, but only the standard, you will not be able to tune the satellite dish by setting the transponder (frequency) of the DVB-S2 standard in the receiver.

By standards, satellite receivers can be divided into two groups:

- with support for DVB-S standard

- with support for the DVB-S and DVB-S2 standard (the ability to view HD channels)

Below are all my recommended transponders for self-configuration satellite dishes are in the DVB-S standard, with the exception of NTV plus Vostok. NTV plus Vostok has all frequencies in the DVB-S2 standard and all equipment supports the DVB-S2 standard

Transponders by which I “catch” the desired satellite

The current list of transponders (frequencies), and the list of channels coming from them to any satellite can be viewed, as one of the options on Frokus.net:

So, all the preparatory work has been completed, with the approximate direction of the satellite dish to the satellite we are looking for, we have decided, we proceed to self-tuning the dish.

Self-tuning satellite dish

The most interesting moment comes, which can bring us both bitterness and disappointment, as well as joy and pride. Of course, our feelings will depend on the result we get.

You will be looking for a signal, the assistant will carefully look at the TV screen, watching for changes in the power and signal quality scales. Ideally, if it is possible to turn the TV in the direction of the window overlooking the same wall on which the satellite dish is fixed. Then you and the assistant will not need to use cellular communication... Your hands will be free to work. If this is not possible, you will have to use telephones. The task of the assistant is to inform you in time about all changes occurring in the signal scales. We start searching for a signal.

Vertically set the mirror perpendicular to the ground, slightly raise it up, and from left to right, or from right to left, smoothly, very slowly move the satellite dish in search of a signal. The assistant should instantly inform you of any changes in the scales. If you walked from right to left, and back from left to right, and silence, change the angle of inclination of the satellite dish in the vertical plane, slightly raising the antenna higher. And again, repeat the search horizontally.

No result? Raise the antenna mirror a little more vertically, and repeat the searches horizontally, from right to left and left to right. If a color slipped through the scales and got lost, congratulations, you just slipped a satellite signal, and you more specifically know where it is. Having caught the signal, carefully try to amplify it just a little bit. Trying to move the mirror a little left-right, and up and down. Having reached the maximum signal, start tightening the fastening nuts.

While tightening the nuts, the assistant reports on all changes in the signal, at this time it is necessary to monitor the indicator of the second scale - the signal quality. I usually tighten the antenna tilt nuts first. Then the nuts for direct fastening of the antenna to the bracket are evenly tightened.

After all the nuts are tightened and the satellite dish is secured, we check if we really tuned it to the maximum. On both sides, with both hands, we grasp the edges of the antenna, and gently, slightly, without special efforts we direct the plate a little to the left, and then to the right, without breaking the tightened fasteners. We do the same with the satellite dish and up and down. At this time, the assistant promptly reports information about the signal state. Do not forget that during the setup itself, we must be behind the antenna, and not in front of it.

Remember? We have not tightened the fastening of the converter yet. We are trying to amplify the existing captured signal by adjusting the converter. Try to move it forward, backward, slightly rotate it to the left, right, and secure it to the maximum signal.

This method of self-tuning a satellite dish, of course, is not at all Feng Shui. But the main thing for us is to get a result, a good result. If in the rain, and in the snow, and in the wind, you calmly watch TV through a self-tuned satellite dish, the image does not freeze or squirm, so we have achieved what we wanted.

Setting up a satellite dish according to the degree of complexity.

Users often do the installation of satellite dishes and their adjustment themselves, without calling specialists. How to set up your own satellite TV "Telekarta"?

The interaction of the signal and the device that receives it largely depends on the location in which the antenna is installed, what features the place of its installation and the surrounding area has. Telekarta operator broadcasts from Intelsat-15 satellite.

The place where you plan to install the antenna can be either in the coverage area or outside it. If the antenna is in the zone of reliable reception, then there will be a minimum of hassle. In this case, a plate with a diameter of 60 cm is fine, and it will not be difficult to set it up.

If the location chosen for installing the antenna is outside the signal reception area, then everything becomes much more complicated. You will have to spend more money on the purchase of equipment, in particular - you will need a larger antenna. In addition, the user will need to know exactly the coordinates of the broadcast, otherwise the receiver will not receive a signal at all.

For advice on tuning the antenna, you can call: 8-800-100-104-7.

In this case, it will be easier to tune the antenna than if you randomly twist the antenna in different directions in an attempt to pick up the signal. The coordinates can also be viewed on the operator's website. If you carry out the installation and adjustment completely on your own, and if it is difficult for you to enter the coordinates, then you can try to rotate the dish manually, observing the indicators of the receiver, until the device picks up the signal.

Precise antenna positioning

Choose (determine) the direction to the south. It should be open, there should be no tall trees, buildings, structures, etc. Most the best option- if the sector is 90 degrees (45 to the right and to the left of the main direction) is completely open.

At the same time, the installation site of the antenna must be well protected from the winds. These are two conflicting requirements, but ideally this should be the case.

The place must be absolutely level so that the antenna brackets are installed in the vertical and horizontal plane without the slightest deviation.

After the site has been prepared, the direction of the antenna must be clarified. The Earth's magnetic field has its own characteristics, and it often happens that when the compass is directed from the antenna installation point at 85.15 ° E. it suddenly turns out that the satellite is not there. The easiest way to find out the real direction to the satellite is to ask one of the neighbors who has already installed and tuned the antenna.

If the first attempts to tune the antenna to the satellite using a compass or map did not give any result (there is no image on the screen, or there is, but the quality is very low), then it is necessary to more accurately direct the antenna to the satellite. For this, the method of manual scanning of space in the supposed location of the satellite is used. The meaning of the method is to smoothly and slowly rotate the antenna within an imaginary plane, in the center of which is the point of the alleged location of the satellite, and the dimensions of the plane are limited to 10 degrees along the horizontal arc and 6 degrees along the vertical. The antenna must first be directed to the point where the satellite is supposedly located, then gently slowly turn it, making a step of no more than 1-2 cm, and after each step pause for a few seconds so that the receiver has time to "realize" if there is a signal here, or not. In this case, you need to look at the TV screen. As soon as the satellite is caught, the power will immediately begin to increase, and then the quality.

Antenna mount

In order for the antenna to successfully receive a signal from the satellite, it is not necessary to call specialists, you can install it yourself.

The main rule when installing a satellite dish: it must be fixed securely on a stationary surface. If it is supposed to be fixed to the vertical wall of the house, then you will need to drill the wall with a puncher, then insert the dowels into the hole and fasten the necessary parts with self-tapping screws. The piece of pipe to which the antenna is attached must be strictly vertical, so you need to use a level or at least an ordinary plumb line with a weight. After the bracket is fixed, you can assemble the antenna itself. It is at this stage that you need to fasten the cable and turn the converter around its axis.

How to tune the Telekarta-TV antenna to the satellite

To make the correct settings, first you need to check if there are already settings, and if they were knocked down, then enter new data.

First you need to perform the following manipulations:

1. Turn off the equipment from the network, connect all wires. Otherwise, the receiver will be damaged. The device has special inputs - tulips, or use "Scart".
2. An image will appear on the screen, indicating that the receiver is working, but the antenna is not receiving a signal from the satellite.
3. On the remote control, you need to press the "Menu" key, in which you need to find the antenna tuning item.
4. If the signal is weak or absent altogether, then the parameters of Telekarta TV channels will be approximately 45% of the potential signal strength. And the value of quality is no more than 50%. With such indicators, the user will not see anything. The antenna must be installed so that the power is at least 90% and the signal quality is at least 70%. The picture, in principle, will appear at 50%, but such a reception will be uncertain, and with the slightest deterioration in the weather, it may disappear. If the equipment is working properly, the set-top box will immediately catch 18 channels.

Setting up the satellite "Intelsat-15"

If there is no satellite on the receiver, then it must be added manually. This is not difficult to do, especially if the parameters are known. You can find them on the official website.

Basic parameters that you may need when adding a new satellite

The frequency of the converter is 10600. For some regions the indicator 9750-10600 may be relevant, in particular for the Sverdlovsk region. The power supply of the converter must be turned on during setup.

Transponder parameters:

• symbol speed - 30 thousand Msim / s;
• frequency - 12640 MHz;
• FEC - 5/6;
• polarization - vertical;
• broadcast format - MPEG-2, DVB-S.

If there is still no satellite signal, even if the equipment is configured correctly, then you need to check the local time setting. Perhaps this is precisely the reason - the system sometimes perceives such failures as a software error, which is why it cannot start work in normal mode.

Setting up any satellite TV dish on your own is quite a hassle. It requires, firstly, a decent experience, and secondly, patience. Knowledge, of course, but this whole thing is gainful.

Therefore, we immediately draw a warning conclusion. If you have neither experience in such an installation, nor time, haste is inadmissible here, nor the desire to break away from the more important, then it is better to entrust all the work from start to finish to a more experienced professional. And it will take him at least an hour to install, and you, like this, at a jump - at least 2, and then, if everything goes "according to plan."

We also take into account that the Telekart satellite television antenna has a dish that is still small in diameter, relatively light; there were times when it was problematic to cope with such an antenna together.

And yet, if you feel confident to start installing and configuring the Telecard yourself, then feel free to get down to work, smartly and slowly.

The installation will require a whole sequence of strictly following one after the other, therefore we strongly advise you to first collect your thoughts and draw up a plan for future work, and it will be very useful to assign to each point of the plan the tools and accessories that are supposed to be used at that moment. Prepare everything in advance and place it in a convenient place so that later you do not have to look for the unfortunate dowel somewhere in the basement, but it is on the roof.

Installing a Telecard will require some theoretical knowledge from you.

First, the signal will be received from the geostationary (motionless above the ground) television satellite "Intelsat-15", "hanging" strictly above the equator over 85 degrees east longitude (we need to know exactly - 85.15 ° east longitude). ). This is the Indian Ocean, 700 kilometers south to the equator from Sri Lanka. The satellite is American, launched in 2009 by a Russian rocket from Baikonur. It is specially designed by Intelsat for broadcasting to Asia and Russia. Initially, it was assumed that out of 22 Ku-band transponders, 6 would be given to Russia, but so far only 4 with a bandwidth of 36 MHz operate in this territory.

Secondly. For the success of the whole undertaking, you need to check whether your installation site is within the coverage area of ​​the satellite signal. If not, then consider yourself out of luck and may still struggle with your local cable provider. If it enters, then it remains to find out to what extent, the diameter of the dish, which will be needed for reliable signal reception, will depend on this.

If you are not on the edge of the zone, then a small plate of 60 cm in diameter may well come up.If closer to the edge, then you will have to take 80, or even all 100 cm.But finally, this subtlety will have to be solved when purchasing a set. We advise you not to wait for the weather by the sea and probe the soil in advance - who is already working with the Telekarta, what signal quality and what diameter the antenna has been chosen, does it regret it, does it recommend a larger antenna.

Not only the quality of the received signal depends on the choice of the antenna size, but also a lot of other side "amenities":

• how convenient it will be to work with the antenna - the larger it is, the heavier;
• how confidently it resists the wind load, and in fact the wind is one of your main "enemies" in the future, if you also put the antenna crazy.

Choosing a place for the antenna

When the antenna is selected, we begin to choose a place to install it. In this case, we are guided by the following rules:

• Determine the general direction to the south, "towards Sri Lanka"; it must be open, not blocked by tall trees or tall buildings. Ideally, a 90 ° sector should be completely clean at your disposal (45 ° to either side of the desired direction).
• The place should be at the same time and well sheltered from the winds. This is how to combine these two seemingly incompatible things, openness and protection from the wind, and the experience and skill of a real antenna installer consists.
• The location must be level so that the antenna brackets are installed in elevation (up and down) and in azimuth (left and right) without distortion.

When the location has been chosen in principle, we begin to refine the direction of the antenna more precisely, which is associated with the magnetic quirks of the Earth, its geomagnetic declination. In other words, if you point the compass at 85.15 ° E. there will be no satellite in this place - the Earth is making its own adjustments. How to find out the true direction to the satellite in your city or village - just ask those who have already installed the antenna. And this is the most reasonable way.

Possibilities of the Internet

If you want to get to everything yourself, then:

Do not forget to note other important parameters on the screen - the magnetic bearing for the compass and the angle of rotation of the converter.

The good thing about working with a map is that you can roughly choose for yourself the landmarks of the direction of the antenna, which you can then check on the ground.

Antenna mount

When the location is selected and the exact direction is determined, you can begin to mount the antenna. We strongly recommend that you do this very carefully and reliably, any errors in the installation will then be shaken by the wind so that the torn-up place will simply have to be changed. Reliability and solidity - that's what should become the law for any "satellite dish restaurateur".

Simulate the entire installation process first, prepare materials, fasteners and tools. Of course, everyone is free to choose the methods of fastening, the main thing, again, is thoroughness and perfect evenness both vertically and horizontally, but, most likely, you will not be able to do it:

• without universal dowels ZUM 12 × 71;
• self-tapping screws;
• 5-6 large bolts up to 70 cm long;
• level, in extreme cases, a plumb line;
• drills, screwdrivers.

Do not forget that during installation it will be necessary to cut the antenna cable and mount F-connectors at its ends.

Determining the position of the dish

It is time for the preliminary determination of the position of the dish. Let's say right away that the Telecard dish is not a strict parabolic dish, because the converter is not in the center, but on the edge. So the geometry of the plate "flows down" slightly. Hence the conclusion - do not try to focus on the center of the plate when directing it. On the contrary, it will "look" slightly "below" in relation to the previously determined exact direction to the satellite. This is the most efficient route to collect the signal and route it to the converter.

Connection and first work with the receiver menu

When the position of the Telecard dish is found, it is time to connect. As usual, this is done with the equipment turned off, it was not enough to pick up the "shorty" at such a crucial moment.

We start already in a comfortable home environment:

Precise antenna positioning

More precise tuning of the antenna is to some extent a matter of experience and skill, but it is generally accepted to use the method of passing the studied sector +/- 10 ° from the main direction with a snake from top to bottom and from left to right (we warn you, you most likely will not be able to perform this delicate operation on your own , because one works with the antenna, and the other monitors the readings on the screen):

• slowly and evenly turn the antenna horizontally every 1–2 cm;
• at each point we pause and wait up to 5 seconds until the signal is stable;
• we control the power and signal quality readings on the screen;
• if it was not possible to find anything satisfactory in this horizontal line, lower the saucer one centimeter down and continue moving horizontally, but in a different direction.

When the signal parameters, and most importantly, the picture quality suits you, consider that the Telecard is configured and you can finally tighten and fix everything. Installation completed.

First of all, it is necessary to determine:
-The signal of which satellites you want to receive.
-Is it possible to receive a signal from the antenna installation site (tall buildings nearby, trees, the presence of high-voltage lines on the signal line).

The approximate location of satellites on the horizon relative to your home:

The elevation satellites are located along the trajectory of the sun passing through the sky. That is, satellites in the south have the largest elevation angle (20 ° -30 °), and those in the southeast or southwest have a smaller elevation angle (10 ° -20 °). To determine the signal propagation in elevation, you can make a triangle with a given angle and keeping the lower side parallel to the ground, look along the upper side to see if there are any obstacles in the path of the satellite signal.

Antenna diameters for reliable signal reception in decibels:

To determine the exact azimuth and elevation the desired satellite you need to know the exact coordinates of your location. You can easily find the coordinates of your us. on that website... You can calculate

And so you decided on installation site, calculated azimuth and elevation satellite, make sure that there are no obstacles to the signal.
-Fix the converter on the bracket with a given angle of rotation looking at the antenna and the back of the converter ( if minus - clockwise, if plus - counterclockwise) for the calculated degree. Most offset antennas standing vertically have an elevation angle of 26.6 ° ( for Yamal201 raise by »3 °).
-Fix the antenna so that it can move with some effort and point it towards the satellite, taking into account the calculated data.
-Connect the cable between the converter and the receiver, as well as the TV with the receiver.
-Connect to the network ( the receiver should write "no signal").
-Enter the receiver menu (usually code 0000), satellite settings.
-Find the satellite you need ( if there is no such thing then you will have to add a new one)
-Tune to a strong satellite transponder (enter frequency, polarization, symbol rate, fec). A strong transponder is usually one with multiple channels.

If after entering the signal level and quality scales immediately jumped, then you were lucky or you calculated everything well. You just need to adjust the signal a little by rotating the antenna in azimuth and angle no more than 10mm.
-If the level has not increased, then proceed to the search. The search sector is usually chosen: in azimuth -15 ° © + 15 °, in elevation -10 ° © + 10 °. On the offset antenna it is easier to twist the azimuth, gradually increasing the angle, and by direct focus the elevation angle, gradually turning in azimuth. We adjust the antenna to the extreme angle and, depending on the type of antenna, gradually begin to rotate, stopping after 4-5mm for 2-3 seconds. Setting up can take from several minutes to several hours, but do not despair and soon the coveted signal will appear on the receiver, and you will not say goodbye to the money that you would give to the installer.
