Foreign Perspectives

Thanks to a spot of stormy weather, our trusty satellite dish has been knocked off even the few channels that we were picking up a few days ago.

Still, we figure that it’s a max of a half hour to get the thing properly aligned on the correct satellite this time around. Essentially, we just need to move it a little more to the right as we were on the leftmost satellite last time.

Shouldn’t we get one of those signal meters to do all this stuff? No need really, a compass and protractor is both cheaper and a good deal more practical when used in conjunction with the signal meter that’s built into each satellite tuner anyway.
