[VOOM] Where is the satellite?

[T. Kevin Blanc]

I'm interested in VOOM, but I have a difficult location (lots of
trees) and I don't want to waste a day waiting for an installer if I
can't find line-of-site to the satellite.

Is there "pointing software" that I can use to establish the
azimuth/elevation from my zip code (or my lat/long)?

Thanks.

The satellite is located that near the DishNetwork satellite that I
can use their locator?

42 degrees of elevation... that's pretty good...

We have encountered folks who can get a DTV signal, but not one from
VOOM, and vica versa. Sorry the only way to determine for certain
whether or not you will receive signal is for a tech to come out and
check for line of sight.

It's in the same orbital slot as their 61.5 bird, for the purposes of this
exercise.
