Summary:A method of adjusting the pointing angle of an antenna includes mounting an antenna on a mounting structure with an antenna mount that includes a clamp member fixed to the mounting structure, a first adjustment bracket pivotally attached to the clamp member, and a second adjustment bracket pivotally attached to the first adjustment bracket, the antenna being mounted to the second adjustment bracket. The first and/or second adjustment brackets includes an access hole for receiving a toothed hand tool. One of the clamp member, the first adjustment bracket and the second adjustment bracket includes a toothed section. A toothed hand tool is inserted through the access hole to engage the toothed section; and rotated to pivot the first adjustment bracket relative to the clamp member or the second adjustment bracket relative to the first adjustment bracket. The pivoted bracket is secured to set the azimuth or elevation angle.
