Dish Alignment in Struisbaai: what to expect

A dish at the southern tip of Africa has the sky to itself, and the wind as well. The same openness that gives it a clear line to the satellite lets the wind work on it, and after a storm it is common for a Struisbaai dish to have drifted.

We re-aim it with a signal meter to the peak position, tighten everything down and look at the mast and bracket for rust or play. If the dish has been pointing at the wrong satellite, the meter shows it straight away, which saves guesswork.

What's Included

Questions about Dish Alignment in Struisbaai

How do I know my dish has moved?

Signs include pixelation, a signal that drops in wind and a no-signal message that appears without cause. From the ground you often cannot see the shift, which is why we use a meter.

Is it safe to adjust the dish myself?

We advise against it. It means working on a roof, and tiny changes matter. A professional with a meter does it faster and more safely.
