Hi, i am currently having two dishes, one 119 w and one 61.5w. Since there aren’t many channels on 61.5 and 118.7 w pretty much covers all the channels i want to watch with 61.5, i just want to adjust my dish to 118.7 W. I wonder what kind of tools and steps do I need? I notice that my dish does not have a motor, so i guess i have to adjust that manually.Moreover, after i adjust my dish, do i need to setup up something with my receiver? i have a 2800 receiver with atmega card.Also how can i know which way i am going to adjust the dish, do i need a compass or signal testing devices? Thanks for any helps

Actually a compass does help
you card need to be set up to the receive that channels.
the IRD do not have to be changed.
This will tell you want to know about setting the dishes

I think you forgot to tell him to do a switch check after setting everything up. That should pretty much do it for the IRD, but I have a question. I just checked on LingSat, and .... 118.7? wassat? (smilr\e)
