theres nothing included with the dish, you need a compass to find the correct position.

No the receiver has a signal meter. He would just have fun trying to figure out which direction to start in. He could do it later in the day so that he could figure out which way is west as the sun is setting.

I never had a compass to put my dish up. It just makes it a lot easier.
