[QUOTE="ProDave, post: 496188, member: 6969"] This is what I used to do before I bought a decent satellite meter. Your set top box will have a signal strength meter built into one of it's menu's. Arrange a long coax lead and set up a portable tv outside or somewhere you can see while adjusting your dish, i.e. on a window sill. Use the built in meter to align for maximum signal. You will know roughly where it points from the old dish. The important thinks is very slow movements, it has to be really accurate, so slow small movement, watch for the meter to catch up. repeat.
