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 Shaw Direct 60 cm configuration
Use this only for the dual feed setup and center the dish on 111.1°W (the active satellite is at the offset LNB). If you have a circular single-feed dish, then use the settings for the 107.3°W satellite.
