Where you point your [link widoczny dla zalogowanych] satellite then, [link widoczny dla zalogowanych] becomes anall-important step [link widoczny dla zalogowanych] in getting great reception. But how does onepoint a ?
Your skew should be set before you mount your dish. Using theadjustment number from your service provider, rotate the dishhorn to match the recommended coordinates.
Your [link widoczny dla zalogowanych] altitude or elevation, gives your satellite dish itsheading, telling it how far above the horizon it needs to go.
The good news is that you can usually find this information withthe help of your satellite provider. for example features a Point Dish/Signal [link widoczny dla zalogowanych] option in theiron-screen menu to assist you [link widoczny dla zalogowanych] [link widoczny dla zalogowanych] in the adjustment of your dish.Using your zip code, you can determine the azimuth, elevationand skew. Pointing your dish is normally part of theinstallation process so plan to do your install when you havetime to follow through.
And finally, the polarization. Also known as the "skew",Polarization refers to the adjustment needed for the curvatureof the Earth. This rotational adjustment compensates for theEarth's [link widoczny dla zalogowanych] curvature between the dish and the beam of the satellite.
Now that you've found your direction, estimate the angle ofelevation. With the ground representing zero, calculate thedistance going upwards using the elevation number provided byyour provider.

With your azimuth and elevation numbers in hand, grab yourcompass and go outside. Standing close to your dish but at leastone foot away, rotate your compass until [link widoczny dla zalogowanych] the needle pointsNorth, or zero degrees. Starting from this point, locate theazimuth number on the compass and turn to face that pointwithout moving the compass itself. East is 90 degrees, South is180 degrees and West is 270 degrees. If [link widoczny dla zalogowanych] [link widoczny dla zalogowanych] your azimuth number is240 for example, you would face a direction that fell betweenSouth and West on your compass.
In truth, pointing your isn't as hard as you might think, but you will need toknow a few things:
Azimuth which refers to the horizontal measurement of adirection from North to East. In terms of your , it tells you how far left or right your satelliteshould go.
