To track any satellite we need a minimum these tools (1) satellite DB Meter (
purchase link) (2) a small coaxial cable with F connectors (
purchase link) (3) spanners and star screw drivers to loose and tight antenna and LNB (4) permeant marker pen (

Watch YouTube videos how to use satellite db meter
Take a smart phone and install QuickSat app (
play store link), watch YouTube videos how to use QuickSat app. Know these 3 parameters of satellite (1) Azimuth angle, it is rotation or direction of antenna face, 0 means exact north direction, 90 east, 180 south, 270 west, 360 (= 0) north. Eg. if azimuth is 190 we can assume that it is between south and west and just 10 degrees from south (190 = 180+10), ie starting point of south west direction. (2) elevation, it is the up and down direction of antenna face, 0 means exact horizontal 90 means exact vertical, elevation is always between 0 and 90 degrees. Eg. if 10 degrees face is just up from horizondal, if 45 degrees it is half between horizontal and vertical (3) Cross polarisation or LNB skew. In LNB there is a zero mark, that zero mark is always towards the exact south direction (or 180 degree azimuth angle)
Mark the current angles in the dish antenna using a permanent marker pen ( if we required to fix in the first satellite location, it will help)
Fix the antenna to dialogue tv direction and mark angles using permanent marker pen.
Enter correct parameters in the FTA receiver like satellite name, LNB frequency 9750 - 10600, DiSEqC switch if more than one LNB is used etc.
Make a blind scan, you will surely get the signals.
