Dish Install, Pointer & Align - Satellite dish alignment

Facilitate dish antenna positioning and installation with precise satellite display:

Installing and aligning a dish antenna can be a daunting task, especially without prior knowledge. To simplify this process and enable you to install and orient your antenna or satellite dish independently, I recommend using the SatCatcher application.

SatCatcher serves as a satellite finder and dish pointer, allowing you to align your antenna accurately towards any satellite. Through augmented reality, this app projects the target satellite in space, aiding in selecting the optimal placement for your antenna or satellite dish while ensuring no obstacles obstruct the signal path (such as walls or trees).

Moreover, SatCatcher utilizes your phone's GPS to depict your location on a map and indicate the satellite's direction from where you are positioned. The app features a compass that emits beeps guiding you to orient your antenna or satellite dish based on the intensity of the beeps or the compass arrow. Additionally, the accelerometer helps confirm the vertical alignment of your antenna holder.

That's all you need to do to get the best results from this application.

1) Download this application for free.

2) If you don't have any experience in installing a dish antenna, this is the best application for you. It is an easy-to-use application.

3) Open the application.

4) Choose the type of dish you have.

5) Select the frequency.

6) Enter your location and find out where the satellite is located.

7) Use the compass to find the direction of the satellite.

8) Enter the direction and set the elevation and azimuth.

9) Adjust the rotation of the LNB (the head of your antenna).

10) Calculate the polarization and adjust the rotation of the LNB.

11) Check that the support of your antenna is vertical.

12) Adjust the elevation.

13) Find the orientation of the dish with the help of the compass.

14) Adjust the azimuth.

15) Adjust the polarization.

16) Calculate the radiation pattern of the antenna.

The steps for adjusting your antenna or satellite dish include:

1.Select a satellite and allow geolocation to determine antenna orientation.

2.View the satellite through augmented reality using your camera, verify for obstructions, and confirm the antenna's placement.

3.Ensure the antenna support is vertical.

4.Calculate polarization and adjust the LNB rotation.

5.Set the elevation.

6.Oriente using visual and audio cues.

7.Make fine adjustments.

For optimal functionality, SatCatcher requires access to your smartphone's camera, compass, gyroscope, accelerometer, and GPS.

Useful tips:

- In case your smartphone lacks GPS, manually adjust the marker on the map to pinpoint your exact location.

- While the compass is crucial for aligning your dish, the absence of a built-in compass does not hinder using the app. You can use the app to find directional clues on the map and calculate orientation, then utilize a manual compass for accurate alignment.

- Recalibrate the compass periodically and maintain distance from metallic elements near the antenna arm, as they can interfere with accuracy. Place your smartphone in an area with minimal magnetic disturbance.
