Re: [DIRECTV] direct tv dish pointing

Since you are getting the two adjacent birds and not the third my guess would be (without obvious obstruction) you screwed up the skew (rotation) angle. The one you should peak on is 110 and then adjust skew so that 101 and 119 are the best balance posible.
You aren't looking at a spot... you are looking at a very precice 18 degree stripe in the sky.
