In what direction is dish satellite 129?
Satellites 119, 110, and 129 are the Western Arc (WA). Satellites 72.7, 61.5, and 77 are the Eastern Arc (EA). While the WA satellites can cover most of the continental United States, the EA satellites help with getting better satellite views in the East.
How do you set azimuth on a satellite?
To set azimuth:
- Use a compass to find the correct angle and move the plumb mast (the pole on which the dish is mounted) until the dish is pointing at that angle.
- Check your signal strength: anything over 40 is a good signal.
- Tighten all hardware.
What is the azimuth for dish Network?
For DISH 300 installations pointed to the 119°W location, azimuth is 252° and elevation is 22°. For DISH 300 installations pointed to the 110°W location, azimuth is 243° and elevation is 28°. Note: The azimuth angle has already been corrected for magnetic deviation, so you can use this number on a compass.
How do you set up a satellite dish?
Connecting Your Satellite Dish to Your TV
- Connect one end of the coaxial cable to the back of your satellite dish labeled “LNB”
- Connect the other end of the coaxial cable to your satellite receiver in the port marked “Sat in”.

What is the azimuth and elevation for DirecTV?
Azimuth relates to the left-to-right positioning of your dish. Elevation concerns the up-and-down positioning of your dish. Your DIRECTV Receiver is programmed to give you these coordinates and help point your dish.
