OK guys, help me out here i'm totally a newbie when it comes to the FTA receivers. I got one of the coolsat 4000 pro. Have it all hooked up brouht the dish up to the roof and am trying to find a good signal, best i can get is 6%.....I went online and there's a few programs that show you to set azimuth and latitude, longitude, blah blah blah...... the site gave me a coordinate or reading for my city and then a calculated value for the satellite i wanted to align with. Can you someone explain a little bit how i should interpret and put these numbers to use?? They mentioned elevation of the dish, azimuth, longitude of the city ELM.. i'm so confused :mad:
 
I moved this post to the FTA area!

Hello and welcome to SatelliteGuys.US :wave

Give us your zip code and we can give you all the angles you will need!

Remember signal strength means nothing, you NEED signal QUALITY!

If you think you are near a satellite try a blind scan!

Explanation of Azimuth and Elevation.....
