DISH for DIRECTV. It looks a lot like the Slimline dish but is even wider and the LNB is very different. These dishes will often say “WorldDIRECT” on the reflector (the back part.)

the dish correctly (and if you’re lucky) the meter should lock on the 101 satellite and you’ll see something like the image above. If you don’t find the satellite right away, rotate the dish on the mast (in other words, move it left and right) slowly until you lock in.
