From your second post it seems you have an arborist problem, not an
alignment one. Call a tree man (One with a bucket truck) and have
him open up the window in the branches.

Or you can move the dish, which I've had to do twice in the 12 years we've
had our dishes.

The first time was because of my neighbor's birch, which eventually blocked
the signal. I moved the dish to the roof, where it came loose, then I moved
it to its final spot, which is a less-than-ideal one. Then my neighbor's
birch died and he cut it down. By that point I was tired of moving the
dish, so I never took advantage of the birch's removal.
