Dishnetwork EchoStar 3 Installation

I live in Jacksonville, Fl 32218 and I want to know how to point my dish to the Echostar 3 satellite. I need to know the Azimuth, Elevation, and Skew for my dish. Right now I have the dish at Azimuth 236, Elevation 39, and Skew 133. Thank you.

Which Dish and for what purpose?

I just realized that I'm in the wrong forum. But I'm switching from DirecTV to Dishnetwork. I bought the dish and receiver for Dishnetwork from a friend of mine and he told me that I need to be set up with the Echostar 3 satellite in order for me to get the Indian package from Dishnetwork.

I don't know where the indian stuff is at, but I'll take your word for it as I can't load EKB right now.

Anyways, you shouldn't need a skew for 61.5 location. Just Az and elv. I got my settings right from my receiver point dish screen. Just set the dish type to dish 300.
 
The receiver itself will tell you where to point to. Just go to the point dish screen on the receiver and enter your zip code. You should only need a point dish screen.
