figured I'd try here before stumbling around trying to talk to the dish techs. can a dish receiver that is NOT authorized/registered/or whatever for use still operate as a dish aimer? will it still ...

With the older dishes when you first hooked up you went MENU 6-1-1 as I recall and that took you to antenna pointing.. At this point you may or may not be "Authorised" it makes no differnece,, Now using a battery operated portable TV at the antenna site (or a 120 volt one for that matter) aim your dish (Enter zip code first).
once you have got the dish aimed you go to CHECK DISH, this is where it checks for authorization.
On some of the newer ones you have to wait for the thing to stop trying to aim a Tailgater, once it gets to that step you hit the "*" button, then I think it takes you to Menu 6 1 1, if not you have to go there.
From there it is the same procedure.
