That is what I used, depending on dish setup ( I used my 61.5 dish so I ignored the skew) you may need the skew.

You also have to correct for magnetic declination in your area.

60517 = Downers Grove IL ( www.usps.com )

Downers Grove longitude = 41.8, latitude = 88.0 ( http://www.epodunk.com/cgi-bin/genInfo.php?locIndex=6077 )

Plug the numbers into Sadoun's dish angle calculator ( http://www.sadoun.com/Sat/Installation/Satellite-Heading-Calculator.htm ) and you get...

elevation 26.5, azimuth 232.5. And don't forget to factor magnetic deviation when using your compass to find it.

When using a Dish500 for single bird pickup, always set the skew to 90, and adjust your aim 4.5 degrees east (due to the offset of the two-eye Y-adapter).

Actually ANY Dish receiver have the azimuth and elevation angles - just type your zip code.

None of my receivers have 129 settings yet. I have a 522, 921 and 301. They have the sat location, just no settings for a dish, no matter what size.

Goaliebob... yeah, my dish is 24.5 degrees elevation for 129
