HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 6 фев 2025
- In this video i will show you how to align /calibrate your satellite dish. With the free application „Satellite finder“ it normally takes about 1-2 Minutes until your sat dish is correctly installed and calibrated. If you if you have problems with the alignment of your dish make sure your compass is correctly calibrated.
After aligning the correct azimuth and elevationangle, plug in all the necessary cables in your satellite dish and tv.
If your have problems with your compass use this video to calibrate your compass : • 1 minute mobile compas...
For downloading the apps your can use those apps:
AppStore:
apps.apple.com...
Google PlayStore:

Problems with your satellite dish? Need a new one? This would be my recommendation:
Satellite dish & LNB*: amzn.to/3aUcFR2
LNB*: amzn.to/380BWaG
Stand*: amzn.to/3aUd1qQ
SAT-Cable*: amzn.to/2KDns7O

Worked amazingly well. Fixed my dish in 10 minutes. Thank you.
Thank your for your comment :)
How 🤔
This is exactly what I was looking for. Thank you. When the roofers re-attached my dish after the shingle replacement, it was mis-aligned. DirecTV DOES NOT GO ON ROOFS ANYMORE! So either they put up a new satellite on the side of the house, or I do it myself.
Good to know as I had the same thing happen. But then I'm pretty sure I'm gonna "drop the dish" due to ATT pricing schemes anyway.
To tune the dish properly, you will also need the skew angle of the LNB. If you have a motorized setup, you will not need the skew angle. The skew angle adjusts automatically with the motor/dish movement.
If you put your phone on the LNB arm it can impact the compass function as the arm is usually metallic. I would suggest setting the elevation value first, setting the decoder on the satellite you want to scan and slowly move the dish horizontally across the area suggested by the app but not with the phone on the arm.
A lot of the Intelsat birds have been replaced with newer models, will there be an update? or just list by orbital slot order maybe vs alphabetical
What satellite I can pick in California San Diego? How big of a dish I need? What kind of LNB? Thanks again for the info
Hi you can use the app „satellite sender“ to check the right satellite for your position. For dish and lnb I would rate you to contact a local dealer for information and advice.
after choosing a satellite, which transponder frequency to select then start the alignment?
Short and easy to understand thx
Thank you very much, for your comment :)
I did everything what you said and still can't get signal getting frustrated trying to get it working
Thanks a lot. In the newest TV models i need also sat receiver or its included on TV?
Thank you very much for your comment! Yes there are TVs on the market with sat receiver included, but check out the internet or your local dealership for the specific information of your current or next TV-model.
@@exultationpictures Vielen Dank
Worked perfectly for me. Thanks!
Thank your very much for your support !!!
Excellent video keep it up
tried this app and it didn't work. ended up just setting the elevation and panning my dish around for HOURS and i still got nothing. no signal on my spectrum analyzer, nothing but noise.
Oh, I'm sorry to hear this. Did you calibrated your compass? If yes and it still didn't work it could be possible hat the compass of your device isn't accurate enough. Maybe you can try an other device?
@@exultationpictures i just tried setting my elevation and scanned the entire southern sky and i still couldn't find anything except for one spot where the noise jumped up at a few frequencies
Good work
But your dish has to be perfectly parallel to earth surface before you start. Was that missed here?
Need help with the elevation angle. my dish has no numbers on the metal work.... ?
Is your antenna prime focus or an offset style ?
Does this work on dishes connected to cell towers?
How do you know what satellite to use for Dish on the go mobile antenna.
Hi, with the App "satellite sender" you can find the right satellite for your region.
Does placing phone above the arm of LNB will be interrupted compass signal ?
It depends. Usually not that much. Try to calibrate your mobile device, its the most common mistake. If you don't know exactly how it works, check our video for it ;)
It does a lot cause the metal body acts like a magnet
So, when using the "Satellite Finder" app, of the 200+ satellites to choose from, how do I know which satellite is the correct one to choose for my position? There must be 5 or 6 Direct TV satellites. Thanks!
Hi, yes there are a lot of satellites. For detailed information you can check out the app “satellite sender” There you can filter for certain senders and which satellites transfer them. Otherwise google helps you.
Works like a charm! Thank you!
Okay, so I have a problem. My SP is giving me an elevation of 35.5 and a azimuth of 146.9 for my location and I'm not seeing any of those numbers for my DirectTV setup using that app. What am I missing?
So how do you know what position you are in before choosing the correct satellite please.
It’s the position your standing in that moment. Afterwards you turn your satellite dish to the satellite.
My phone compass app has been calibrated and is reading true north but north on the satellite finder app is reading a different north about 15 degrees off, this app used to work very well but now it is not much use at all. Have tried uninstalling the app and reloading it but still not showing true north. Any suggestions, thanks
Hello, this is of course annoying, I'm sorry. Try it with another device, if you have one available. If it does not work with it, please write again.
Good luck and best regards
Am very happy
N am following
Awesome. Thanks Man !
Thank you very much!
thanks man. Can this app replace the old oscilloscope satellite pointers? unfortunately mine broke. 😢I am an electrician and I often point satellite dishes for my clients
Yes it can! Just try it and check if you can use it for your work :)
Can not find dish in the satellite finder, trying to realign our dish on dish network.
What do you excactly mean? You can't find the needed satellite in the app? Which one do you need?
Thank you!
Very good
Thank you very much!!
Nice video
Thank you very much ! Appreciate it
Nicely explain iam India
Thank you very much!
I use a GT Media meter
When I calibrate my compass, the app says "turn the antenna by 689 degrees to the right".
Why am I getting these huge numbers?
Hello, this can't be true, you are right. Try to restart or reinstall the app, if this is not working try to use another device. If all this does not work, please write me again.
Good luck and best regards
Turn your GPS on buddy..
@@boyutog5487 if you mean location services on my mobile, then it was on...
keep turning it to the right over and over again
And after that u use the hollobox to scan the channels
Thanks alot👍
Great 👍
Thank you very much! :))
The app does not have the Anik satelites
Hi, I’m sorry to hear this! Normally the app includes Anik1,2,3. I can‘t say why you can’t find them. Try to restart the app and make sure you‘re in the radius of the satellitesignal. Good luck!
useful, thanks for this video.
Thank you very much for the comment!
I tried this. The metal of the dish assembly plays havoc with the compass app - merely bring my i-phone or my i-pad within a foot or two of the dish cause the compass to perform very erratically. This method was not successful for me.
I'm sorry to hear this. I hope you found another method to align your dish.
2:16 dvb c while the video is about satellite tv😵💫
Thinks bro
perfect
thx bro
Shit dont work ,tried to realign and screwed everything up, had to call a tech to come and fix it.
Or was it just user error?
It says "turn your dish 4800 degrees to the right."
Oh seems like a bug, I'm sorry!

Not working in South Africa
the app is absolutely independent of location. There are well over 10,000 active users in South Africa. If the app does not work, it may be because you are using a smartphone that does not have a built-in compass sensor and gyroscope sensor. Without these sensors, the app will not work, regardless of location.

EleWation DeWice!
I can find the signal without using motor dish movement
@exultationpictures Hi Peter, Weel done on the App, it is simple and effective.
Do you have any plans to add the LNB Skew angle details for the location to the App? That would increase its usefulness by 33.333% (As to commission a dish we require the Azimuth, Elevation Angle and LNB Sku 🙂).
The obstruction function is very useful, it would be enhanced by an indicator that enables the user align the phone with the dish and choose between an Offset Dish and a Prime Focus Dish.
If you had the above two enhancements as a premium version I'd happily pay $5-8 for the additional features.
Tanong Lang po pwede ba gamitin ang sattelite receiver na galling sa middle east ano name NG sattelite pwede gamitin dito sa Pinas salamat po
D ako sure kng pwd pero ses _7 satellite po
You forgot the lnb skew
جيد ولكن لقد كان يعمل معي مره واحده وعندما ذهبت للتعديل لم يصح
مرحبًا ، حاول إعادة ضبط بوصلة هاتفك الخلوي. هذا هو الخطأ الأكثر شيوعًا. حظا سعيدا في المحاولة مرة أخرى. تحياتي الحارة
i am so surprised how these guys put up these videos and they can't even pronounce product name,
They also tell you to set the dish angle to a curtain degrees but they never tell you that the poll must be perfectly level or makes no sense, plum, level, clear view, is the most important or you will never get it done right
The only question i have... whats a "wideo"
Sorry, I'm not a native speaker
Wow
Please languech farsi
Didn't work
oh no :( Try to calibrate your internal compass. If you get a signal but no picture, the problem could be the you get a signal from a wrong satellite with a similar position.
Useless and buggy app
The app has more than 1 million active users. If the app gives bad results, 99.9% of the time it's on Android devices that don't have the necessary hardware built in. For the app to work well your smartphone must have a built-in compass sensor and a gyroscope sensor. 95% of all Android and 100% of all IPhones have these sensors.
@@exultationpictureshow do you determine that, your smartphone has those sensors?
And if they don't have, what is the alternative way out? Thank you.

And after that u use the hollobox to scan the channels
It doesn't work at all
Im sorry to hear this! If its possible recalibrate your compass or try a different device
