Checked out dish pointer but couldn't find any options for that.Pretty sure I have read of others doing it.The skew and elevation is what I need to figure out.
 
it can be done, but signal on both sats will be lower than normal

use the same settings you would use for the 1000.2 dish as a starting point

It's just a little project I had in mind,got several dish 500 laying around.Did a google search and found a few posts here,some said to use the settings for 1000.4 at dishpointer.
 
I have this both for my home dish setup, and when traveling in my RV.

I used to use satcalculator.net, but for a long time now that site has returned a "Can't calculate for your location, this calculator is for the North Western hemisphere only!" when searching using their drop down city list. Maybe it's just on my end. Give it a try maybe it'll work for you.
 
Thanks for the tips all.

I take it we have a few Eagle haters here lol.I got an animated tarheel avatar somewhere, prob get more flak from it.

It's not the Eagles, it's the animation.
