Satellite Dish No Signal: Step-by-Step Checklist
No signal on your satellite receiver? Check the dish, then the LNB, then the cable, then the receiver, one thing at a time.
Read guide →Calculate dish pointing angles online, then use the Android satellite finder app for AR-guided alignment in the field.
DishTuner is a free online satellite dish alignment tool that calculates the exact azimuth (compass bearing), elevation (vertical tilt), and LNB skew (polarisation angle) needed to point a satellite dish at any of 339+ geostationary satellites from any location on Earth. No account or signup is required. An Android app with AR-guided alignment is also available on Google Play.
Start with the free satellite dish alignment calculator to find your azimuth, elevation and LNB skew angle, or browse the satellite database and channel frequencies.
Calculate exact dish geometry for 339+ orbital positions. The same calculator runs on the web and in the Android app — true geographic azimuth, elevation, and LNB skew, identical on both.
