[QUOTE="a33, post: 1129667, member: 332642"] I'm trying to understand your 'angle error'. You mean that the elevation angle error is the angle perpendicular to the clarke belt, right? And the angle error (which seems to be always a bit greater than the elevation angle error) is the angle error, relative to the satellite you were originally aimed at (so not vertical, but a bit diagonal)? BTW for the USALS consequence of using modified motor angles, I proposed a method to still use the standard USALS calculation of the receiver here: [URL='https://www.satelliteguys.us/xen/threads/usals-notebook.166471/page-2#post-4136366']USALS Notebook[/URL] Meaning simply: enter the MODIFIED latitude value as your latitude input value in your receiver. But it seems that the actual rotation angle for this modified latitude input was not very different from the 'normal' calculated usals rotation angle, as I seem to have tested back then.
