90cm GeoSatPro Dish elevation for stab hh90 calculation

[full_bars]

I am trying to do this calculation but I cant find the dish elevation from the manufacturer for a fixed mount to calculate for a motor mount.

My latitude is 38.5.

38.5 - (45 - 38.5) gives me 32.5 and that's what I set my dishes elevation to right? With the motor set to my latitude 38.5? I think I figured it out just wanted to confirm Im doing it right, I havent got the motor to work correctly yet and I think I know why now.

You can find your dish elevation e.g. here:

DishPointer - Align your satellite dish

DIY and professional tools to point your satellite dish. Get accurate information for your location with our online satellite finder so that you can get the job done and watch satellite tv in no time.

Select you location, and "Motorized systems"/ true north/south, and press "Search"; and your elevation angle due south will be shown in a small window on the map.


And BTW, I prefer to use the "modified motor angles", as they follow the arc better, so you don't have to do very much fine-tuning. But you might want to become familiar with the method from the manual, first.
