Or look up the azimuth and elevation settings on:

it uses the zip code of wherever you will be. On our single LNB getting the tripod level is critical. Point Azimuth scale on the tripod to north with the use of the compass. Elevation setting should be on the dish. Simple set-up, usually get good signal on first try with the single or double LNB. Hook cable to satellite/cable in and you will be able to watch on living room tv. Bedroom tv is a little bit more involved as you have to make sure the cable jumpers in the rig are properly set. With a single lnb dish you are limited to the same channel on both tv's. If you need more assistance, there are other threads under the LET US ENTERTAIN YOU topic, they definitely help if you look through them.

On edit: Tripods are available at Camping World or satellite TV dealers, a search can be done on the internet.
