Hello guys and girls for that matter!:-wave
A complete newbie here! Using the great info in this forum, I am in the process of setting up my motorized system and have couple of questions just to make sure things will be ok on the day!!:-shifty
Let’s start with the goods!
Technomate 1500 super
Technomate 2100 motor
Funke 1M dish
0.2 Titanium LNB.
My Latitude = 54 degrees north and my Longitude = 1 west.
Using the motor instructions, the dish elevation will be 22.4.
Is it right that Thor 2A (1 degree west) where I should point the dish to get the arc correctly?
If that is the case than using (_http://www.satsig.net/maps/lat-long-finder.htm ), it tells me that Thor 2A is Azimuth= 182.2 (magnetic compass). And dish elevation= 28.4.
Is that where I should point the dish to get (1 degree west)?
Why there is a difference in the elevation value between the manual instruction and the website calculator? Does it matter?!
Many thanks for all the help and suggestions:-worship :-worship
