From what I could gather, in order to calculate the correct elevation of a satellite dish, I need to know the following parameters:
Dish offset (how do I calculate this?)
Coordinates of my position on earth
Satellite coordinates
From these three parameters I should be able to calculate my satellite dish elevation degrees. After I have this number, I can take an inclinometer and precisely position the elevation of my dish.
Please let me know if this is the correct process of configuring the elevation of a dish, and if there is a calculator for this, or if I have to do this manually, and how.
Thank you.
