How to Adjust the Skew for Dish 500, 110 and 119 Degrees
- 1). Locate the skew, azimuth and elevation numbers that you will need for your location by going to the Dish Network website and find the right numbers according to your zip code (see Resources).
- 2). Adjust the skew point on the back of the dish until it lines up with the appropriate number. The skew adjustment is in the middle of the dish assembly. The skew scale is on the left and the skew point is on the bracket. Line up the skew line with the correct number on the skew scale. The skew along with the elevation and azimuth settings will line you up for both the 110 and 119 degree satellite.
- 3). Tighten down the skew bolt on the dish assembly as tight as you can get it. It is located just below the skew point.
