It is worth noting down in a site log book the raw uncorrected QPSK bit error rate (BER) and the RXPower and the date. Then after some time if things change you will be able to detect if the antenna has become mis-pointed. The QPSKBER is most important. Under clear sky conditions aim for 0.0001 or better.
