Hi I have a Directv aU9 dish and was wondering if anyone had aiming instructions. I have an accutrack II meter and saw a video on solidsignal website but can't find it again. I would like to get printed instructions if possible.
Thanks Mike

Go to Solid Signal website http://www.solidsignal.com/p/?p=2699&d=directv-ka-ku-dish-installation-videos&mc=02 and watch the video's, there's a total of 5 that take you through the entire process of setting up and aiming.

Also you can go here and get the instruction manual in PDF from this link

If you have any questions or problems feel free to ask, I will do my best to answer them. (I'm using a SL3 SWM Directv Slimline dish, and use a AcutracIII+ for setup.)
