Or you can go through the guided setup in the receiver.

Isn't it terrible it is easier to ask the question rather than read the instructions. What ever happened to the free install for new customers?

first... atp1313: [adenosine triphosphate ??] thank you very much for your fast reply.
iwc5893: instruction book??? i did not get one. what i go was 6 copies of my obligations to use their system. However, they are better than my experience with Dish
Boba: i had a free install on my CA home. this question was for my MT RV site. and ,yes, sometimes it is easier to ask a question. i made my living answering them for people who needed help not a sharp retort so i am now giving other the opportunity to be helpful.

Ummm...I never said anything about an instruction book. I suggested that you could use the guided setup in the receiver to get coordinates, which will work in situations where you can't wait for a reply from here or don't have internet access.

Go to menu, settings, setup, satellite, repeat guided setup.

Enter the zip code of where you are at.

It will GIVE you the proper angles based on that zipcode.

Happy trails.
