[QUOTE="blackninja, post: 59696, member: 180789"] The SMW program's giving me an angle of 23 degrees. I'm aware of the markings on the back of the dish but 23 degrees from what? (sorry I probably sound dead stupid) It also gave me an azimuth angle of 143. Is this the compass bearing I should use (if I need a compass)? I'm a bit confused about the various nuts and bolts I should be unscrewing to move the dish. There is one screw that has come slightly loose lower down behind the dish but is almost impossible to get to. There are two (long) screws further up behind the dish which are easier to get to. Any help? Again sorry for sounding thick - totally new to all this. (BTW that heavens-above site's amazing. It's a worldwide site and not only did it find Tarporley but also the tiny neighbouring village I live in.) [/QUOTE]
