    Tilt off 2 degrees

    I have had Directv for about a year. I just today looked on the dish at the tilt setting and its off by 2 degrees and is supposed to be set on 70 for my area. Should I put that directly on the 70 for the tilt? It was put there by the installer. I can post my signal levels when I have time. Lem52

    Why can't they?
