LOCATING THE SATELLITE
SUGGESTIONS FOR AVOIDING
SATELLITE SIGNAL ACQUISITION ERRORS
With the addition of several new U.S. satellites, your system may
encounter some difficulty locating the correct satellite on the first
attempt.
To reduce searching errors, it is recommended that you use the
"ENTER ELEVATION" Search method on the Winegard Automatic
Positioner. Refer to Pg. 9 in the Operation section of this manual.
Elevation can be acquired by entering your local ZIP code in the
Receiver Set-up Menu. Once you find the correct elevation, subtract
3 degrees and enter this number. Example: If you are in an area that
requires 41 degrees elevation, enter 38 degrees in the Elevation
Search method.
