[QUOTE="rolfw, post: 25953, member: 175057"] If the two satellites are both almost directly in front of the window, then you may have a fighting chance, but it is difficult to get good reception through glass. Some dishes have a scale on the side for elevation, the azimuth can be checked with a compass, you can find out what both should be for your location by going to [url=www.heavens-above.com/countries.asp]Heavens Above[/url] , looking up your coordinates and inputting the information into the free [url=www.smw.se/smwlink/smwlink.htm]Swedish Microwave Calculator[/url] . PS. If you can beg or borrow an analogue receiver, the sat finding is made much easier. [/QUOTE]
