How Do You Set Up Direct TV?
Making the switch from cable to satellite may be daunting to some less acclimated with the process, but DIRECT TV installation is a fairly straightforward process once the dish is correctly positioned and pointed in the correct portion of the sky. With a friend to provide support, setting up of your DIRECT TV system may prove only a moderately challenging process. Scout out the area where you are planning to place your satellite dish. If there are obvious obstructions, such as trees, choose another area. Also, test out the surface of your dish mounting area. If it does not present a reasonably flat and secure mounting surface, move on to another prospective dish location. Mount the dish once a suitable location has been chosen. Ensure that the base is flat against the mounting surface, and does not wobble. Additionally, check that the dish mast lies perpendicular to exactly level. Check for this along multiple points of the mast. Check your toolbox for or borrow a handheld level tool.
