PERFECT RECEPTION
Check the sight line to every feed
For trouble-free reception, each feed must have a clear line of sight. Check for trees, buildings and other obstructions in the satellite direction beforehand on the map, or on site with the official DishPointer Pro 2 app.
Your 97W / 101W Multi-LNB configuration
Use this generic preset when the center feed is at 97°W and the second feed is at 101°W. DIRECTV WorldDirect also includes 101°W, but centers on 95°W and needs its own preset.

Quick setup guide
- Aim the dish along the alignment line shown on the map.
- Set elevation and dish skew on your dish scale to the values shown by DishPointer.
- Check for obstructions with the DishPointer Pro 2 app. Each active feed must have a clear line of sight.
- Peak the signal for the centered satellite, then verify or fine-tune the others.
