    Seeking: Bell ExpressVu Satellite Hookup/Dish Pointing

    Looking to upgrade my dish so I can get HD programming. I have all the equipment (dish, LNBFs, wires, switch, receiver) but for the life of my can't get the dish pointed properly. I know you have to get sat 91 (SD) and 82 (HD). I can point the dish to sat 91 easily but it's when I try to get sat 82 where I am having trouble. I searched Kijiji and the guy(s) on there are way too expensive. Anyway if any does this or knows someone who can help me please let me know. I'm willing to pay but for a reasonable price. Thanks.

    If you truly have 91 .... 82 is basically just beside it. Before checking 82 did you do a check switch?

    (Looking from behind the dish, 82 should be just a little right of 91)

    Don't get discourage.... just need some patience...
    If you think it's hard to meet new people, try picking up the wrong golf ball.

    Hey guys, here's a little update. I was able to get 91 but then all of a sudden it switched and said wrong sat 119. I contacted bell for help through the chat feature. The rep asked what coordinates I was using, told him that I was using the ones from the install guide (208 compass, 100 skew, 37 vertical), he checked and gave me a different set of coordinates (218, 37, I can't remember the skew). Anyone know if the new coordinates he gave me is right? Just want input before I just back on the ladder lol
