[QUOTE="rolfw, post: 108914, member: 175057"] This is getting confusing and there is some incorrect information circulating. If your longitude is close to 5W, then 5W will be the highest satellite on your arc, you due South reference and hence the satellite to set up on. Doing anything other than this makes life more difficult. Because this is a UK forum, many members are situated at longitudes very close to 1W, therefor, many threads mention this satellite as being the one to set up on, this is of course, not always the case it has to be the nearest satellite to your actual longitude. :) [/QUOTE]
