Programming your satellite receiver to view



Programming your satellite receiver to view

This guide will assist in programming your receiver to enable reception of Hope Church Channel. Before attempting to program this new channel it may be necessary to make adjustments to the dish and/or LNBF to obtain a strong signal that reflects good signal and quality levels. Poor signal quality will affect the ability to program and properly receive additional channels.

If you are already receiving some or all of the Adventist channels you may only need to fine tune your dish with very small adjustments. If you need aiming coordinates for your Adventist satellite system, an online dish aiming calculator is available at .
