Setting up a Dish Network satellite dish without the help of a professional can be a difficult task, but it is not at all an insurmountable endeavor. As long as there is the proper hardware on hand–the dish itself, the satellite receiver and a hand-held level–coupled with the official documentation and an understanding of the structure of the dish and the nuts and bolts designated for elevation/azimuth adjustment, a Dish Network satellite dish can be installed in an afternoon.
