desired position by pinching the

tabs holding the legs in place

and moving the leg extension

ELEVATION ANGLE

Depending on your location, satellites will be at an elevation

angle between 30° and 60°. Southern states point more

toward 60°, northern states point more toward 30°.

FINDING THE SATELLITE

1. Be sure to connect the cables to the TV, receiver and

antenna before accessing satellite signal, and connect to

your power source.
2. Check the instruction manual that came with your

receiver to determine how to access the on-screen signal

meter.
The signal meter shows you when you have locked onto

a satellite broadcast signal and gives the signal strength.

Be sure you select your type of dish antenna — pointing

coordinates will depend on the type of dish you have.
3.

Azimuth value is determined by the local zip code of

your location.

Enter into your receiver menu.

4. Rotate compass dial until azimuth value aligns with the

blue

arrow.

5. Turn compass to align red pointer arrow to red “N”.
6. Point satellite dish in same direction as the blue arrow.

TO STORE THE TR-3535

and slide the leg extension back into the leg until it locks in

the storage position. See Figure 3.
4. Tighten the knobs and store the tripod.

5. Slide satellite antenna*

onto pole and secure it
