Method of installation
First of all you need to find the right location for installing the satellite TV dish, the antenna should be directed towards the southern sky and hence there should be a clear line of sight.
You need to both the mast in a solid and strong foundation. Using a level allow the mast plumb in all direction. You need to tighten the bolts on the must. However, be sure that the mast plumb in all directions. After that you need to set up the dish antenna on the mast.
