DStv Dish Relocation & Realignment Guide
Are you moving to a new home, upgrading your roof, or experiencing complete signal loss after a heavy thunderstorm? Relocating and aligning a satellite dish requires exact elevation and azimuth calibration.
DStv Satellite Dish Relocation & Realignment
What Dish Relocation Involves:
- Safe Removal: Unmounting the existing dish kit and inspecting the LNB for sun damage or cracked casing.
- Optimal Site Selection: Choosing a clear line of sight facing North-East without tree branch obstruction.
- Heavy-Duty Anchoring: Mounting galvanized wall brackets using steel rawl bolts to resist strong winds.
- Digital Signal Alignment: Peak tuning Azimuth (68.5°E), Elevation (roughly 32°), and LNB Skew angle for 95%+ signal quality.

Common Questions & Expert Answers
Can I relocate my DStv dish by myself when moving home?
While you can unbolt the dish bracket, realigning it at your new address to lock onto the IS-20 satellite (68.5° East) requires a specialized satellite meter. Misaligning the dish by even 1mm results in E48-32 No Signal errors.
Why does my dish lose signal during strong winds or rain?
Winds loosen rusted wall brackets or shift the LNB skew angle. Furthermore, undersized 60cm dishes suffer from severe ‘rain fade’ during summer storms. We recommend upgrading to an 80cm/90cm steel or aluminum dish kit.
