TIP

Before you begin

Your satellite dish antenna must be installed before you can begin following the procedures in this User

Guide. (Professional installation is highly recommended.) Your dish needs to be mounted in a position

where it has access to the satellite signals, and RG-6 coaxial cables must be run into the room(s) where

your receiver(s) will be located. If you choose to install the dish yourself, see the separate instruction

manual that came with your satellite dish antenna.
