hey everybody,
So i moved down to cali. Went back to doing car audio from home audio. I was super excited cause i couldnt wait to get dish down here with small dishes. I installed dish network back in alaska and we always had to use huge dishes. So the house i moved into was wired for direct. i tried direct and i hated it. The menus suck and the dvr is hard to use. no search. anyways i didnt like it. So i Cancelled my direct. So today i hook up my 942 and head outside to repoint my 18" dish at the 119. Its a single lnb dish and im pretty sure i can do it. So i take a reading with my compass and find the heading. look up the elevation, and tried to point it all night. Walkies and someone watching the screen. anyways i never found the sat. set the elevation and pan and scan. I guess i need a meter. Anyways just to be sure... The dish and lnb should be able to pick up dish network when connected to a dish network reciever right? even thought they were direct tv... Anyone have any tips for me or know someone i can call in the sanfernando valley to come point my dish? sob story i know. later doodes
