Simple method for proper dish alighment-elevation -A local sattelite Finder

Elevation Simply means the movement of the dish upward and
downward. Today i will be sharing a little trick that you can try out for
yourself in other to get the elevation of your satellite degree.
If we can properly set the elevation angle , then the azimuth alignment
will be a very simple one to adjust. So the following simple procedures
will be helpful for sat installers. If you already know the setup , just
ignore it.
1. Hope we all remember our old school days, this simple device
[Protractor] in your Maths Set.Take it.
2. Take a thread for 20 cm length. Fix the one end on the top[@ the
Middle] with sellotape ( see fig.) and add a counter weight on the other
end. ( I used a spark plug here as a counter weight)
3.Fix it on the scalar ring surface of the dish antenna with A Gum or
sellotape.
4. Move the dish antenna up and down. Now the thread move due to
gravity and shows the correct elevation angle. It works 100%.

This type of setup will be very useful for aii Installers. Within 5 to 10
seconds , you can fix the elevation angle correctly. while you Work to get
the azimuth.
