Direct tv hd dish alignment
We have been using Direct TV for 15 years . No problems aligning our 18" round dish .We would like to upgrade to HD receiver and slimline dish. Are the HD dishes difficult to align?

No.
There are three things to get right. One is to make sure the mast is vertical. Two is to adjust the elevation and skew to go with your current lat long. Three is to point the dish. If you get the first two correct, it just takes a little tweaking to get max signal strength by pointing in the right direction.
Having done steps one and two, I usually get signal strength in the high 90's within a minute or two.
