[QUOTE="johnsattuk, post: 426441, member: 183150"] Not quite sure where the 50 deg west fits into this :confused: Even though you are not at the moment motorising the dish, I think it would be best to set it up conventionally ie: Dish set at 0deg on mount pointing due south. Adjust the mount and the dish to suit your latitude, the Fibo's are quite well marked for this. Setting up this way will give correct dish angle and skew for all the satellites when you move it to the desired sat position. Don't know offhand what the az angle is for astra from Oslo, but plenty of sites will caclulate it for you. Bit of fine tuning :D [/QUOTE]
