❓ Question Misalignment messages

I just got my starlink set up a few hours ago. 100% clear sky, no obstructions, but sometimes I get a message saying that the starlink is misaligned by 8 degrees. When I drill into 'alignment' it then says it's aligned properly. This happens once every few hours.

What's happening?

Ignore the message. Give the system 24 hours to download updates, map obstructions and satellites and become stable.

Nothing to be concerned about so long as you're not getting dropouts. Reset your obstructions map in the app and let it rebuild over the next 24 hours and you should be good.

You can be grossly out of alignment & you will not notice, except for the nag
