Angle Calculation

[Jim "Spot" Beam]

I did the angle calculation for Cband prime C only and also KU only both came back with same elevations.

Is that correct?

I want to hit G1 to do a master reset on 4DTV to sub on W5 (not selectable hence the master reset).

6' solid 1.8, old style circular mount from sadoun (not the polar mount).

Any help for aiming at single Cband sats from Lat 39.6 Lon 84.1?

Thanks

So there is no difference in the elevation setting between prime focus or offset?

The elevation is the the same to the satellite. The apparent elevation of the dish's face will be below the satellites elevation, because on an offset dish, the actual beam is offset degrees above the dish face elevation. On a prime focus dish there is no offset.

I love Galaxy 11 C! Need to get 133 to update 4DTV for a Master Reset. I want to subscribe on W5 after the new year.

Does anyone know of a strong transponder there? I didn't see one in the Strong Transponder C Band issue. Manually pointing 6' is tricky.

Thanks
