It is hard to tell from the DishPointer.com. The 119 satellite line shows 164 feet distance and 178 feet high. The 110 satellite line shows 164 feet distance and 168 feet high. The Galaxy 91W shows 164 feet distance and 121 feet high.

There are lots of trees in Pacific Grove. Does anyone know if there has been Dish installation/alignment problems in the area? We may be moving in a month.
