I need someone to do me a favor.

I had an installer leave me the HR10-250 and a new 5 lnb dish today. He did not install it cause we had to leave and I am going to do a self install.

Would someone with the new H20 and the AT9 dish installed type in my zip code to get my elevation, azimuth, and tilt settings? I would get them from my phase III dish but from what I understand this is based on the wrong bird.

We do not have the locals yet and I am redoing my wiring closet and want to go ahead and install my AT9 dish and get that out of the way!

Anyways, my zip code is 73018.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

And if you have not already done so, check out the installation videos at this link. The AT9 is pretty finicky in how it is setup and adjusted.

Scott, if the 5-LNB is going on the roof make sure you have two extra braces (called monopoles) to make a sturdy mount. The dish needs the extra support if the mast foot is NOT firmly bolted to a rafter. The extra braces should be arranged to make a three-point support for the dish mast.
