My zip code is 48154. Livonia, Michigan. I am using the Round dish. The Direct TV setting says 38 degree angle and 213 degrees azimuth. I have the dish mounted on a tripod. I did level the tripod before aiming the dish. Will try again this afternoon. Will post my progress.

You are using a Direct TV dish correct not Dish or other brand. They have differend LNB's and won't work.
