[mythtv-users] FTA Satellite Receivers -- Satellite Alignment

[Jack Burghardt]

Well I got Telestar 5 going. Do you have sat meater is very helpful also
small TV and tunner will help you a lot. You need to calculate satelite
location too and have compas to point the dish and use sat meater to make
final ajustments. When you have small tv that let you watch signal strenght
but sat meater is much better.
