What do you want to pick up ?

Most useful satellites will actually be very much above you in the sky.

Hi,

I suggest you search on the internet for info in your own language so that you first understand where the TV satellites are located.
i.e above the equator at 22300 miles.

Then go on Lyngsat.com and find out which satellite you were on before.

Then use a site such as this __http://www.satsig.net/maps/lat-long-finder.htm
to see where to point your dish.

Since you're in the northern hemisphere your dish needs to point south
+- 50? degrees,
