Hi Guys:
I am planning to carve a hole in the forest for a Directv 5 LNB Slimline dish. My Zip is 83821.
The local installer told me that he needs a clear line of sight to multiple satellites, and that this needs a hole in the sky with azimuth from 130 degrees to 170 degrees (from true N) and an elevation of 30 degrees from horizontal. He won't come back unless I have made this hole.
The Directv service tech I spoke to a few minutes ago tells me that the azimuth should be 161 degrees centered in a 30 degree sweep, and that the elevation is 50 degrees. This makes a huge difference in the amount of tree felling, and to the trees that have already been trimmed for a 30 degree elevation los.
Is there a look-up table by Zip that I should be looking at, or can someone please give me the correct requirement?
Many thanks
