Enter your location, the satellite, and edit time manually untill they have the same azimuth. Now you know what time of day your supposed to go outside looking for a clearing between the trees.

WinOrbit is really old and I kept a copy since the Windows 95 days. For it to report 0.1 degree precision I had to use Excel as a DDE client but I can't figure out how to do that anymore.

Do you have another favorite satellite tracking software, a more modern that is more usefull for this purpose?

Well, I found Orbitron and it's much easier to use.
