    A local dish installer should be able to help you. It's just a matter of locking on to the correct coordiates.

    I live in the Omaha, NE area. I just used a local dealer to install it and (I got the coordinates...to aim the dish on this site:



    Satellite Look-Angle Calculator







    --Check Star Choice Elliptical Dish
    --Dual Satellite (20" Echostar dish, 60cm Star Choice dish or 75cm Star Choice dish) This box is automatically checked.
    --Scoll down to the list of cities and pick NYC
    --Hit the "Calculate" button

    -------------------------------------------------------
    Sat One: 105.0
    Sat Two: 113.0

    N Lat: 40.75
    W Lat: 74

    True Azimuth: 226.88
    Elevation: 30.83
    Skew Angle: 119.4

    ------------------------------------------------------------------


    The instsaller will then check for signal strength and fine tune if needed.

    Afterwards, call your broker to set up the account and start up the service.
    You Star Choice manual will have other needed info for your set up.
