Setting up a satellite dish
We have a spot to call our home base this winter in Arizona. I would like to have satellite TV while at the space. It will not be a mobile installation. I have a Dish 1000 dish and need to purchase...

In addition to compass and on sat info off setup on Dish it is important to have the tripod plumb. I find it much easier to have a flat platform to sit on the ground. When it is level both direction the mounted vertical short post is plumb. I copied the platform design from other home made platforms made from metal I have seen in RV parks. I mounted RV levels on my platform. Just a rectangle made fron angle steel with Dish bracket mounted on it.
