To put your site location in the middle, drag the map. I have removed the Geocoding option to enter your ZIP code or your town name to save money. To refine the accuracy, click on the plus sign in the navigation boxes at the upper left side of the map.
The scale will magnify so that you can home in accurately on your location. If Google type map is shown, choose the Map, or Satellite version to see the satellite photo image of the ground or even your house! This page is not free of charge. Google charges went up massively in mid To keep costs down I removed the option to centre the map by typing in your place name called geolocation.
I also removed the street view option an orange peg-man icon. I had Google maps with a daily quota and when this ran out the page stopped working for the rest of the day. For some while I changed to from Google Maps to Mapbox leaflet raster maps charged on a per tile basis, but these are to be made obsolete on 1st June I have therefore done a big software update and changed the page to Mapbox GL JS with vector type maps.
Mapbox have a free allowance of page loads per month, and I get charged when this runs out. If I get into trouble I will cease the page till the end of the month. For cost reasons, please do not reload this page. Set the dish elevation angle first. JavaScript is disabled. For a better experience, please enable JavaScript in your browser before proceeding.

If that is true, than it would be possible to get strong reception on and to the west and be missing Suggestions would be to move dish to the west and lower the elevation, assuming there is a second location for and The funny thing is that my meter shows three satellite feeds in western spot, but my suspicion is the third signal is not Will try moving dish to the west and lowering elevation.
I am located in western Oregon. Last edited: Jun 8, Lifetime Supporter. Jul 20, 52, 17, Northern VA. The appropriate satellite for your home depends your location and the type of receiver. No matter where you live, you will follow the same calibration process. You will have the option of selecting the correct satellite when you go through the receiver's Setup menu.
Adjust the elevation of your dish to match the proper alignment for your ZIP code. Consult your owner's manual or visit the links in the Resources section to find the correct orientation for satellite dishes in your ZIP code.
If you have a Dish , you must also set the skew of the dish to the correct angle. The skew is the amount of rotation that is necessary to align this type of dish.
Turn on the Dish Network receiver inside your home. Clarke first had the idea that a particular altitude would cause a satellite to appear motionless to the revolving earth below. That orbital height, about 22, miles, perfectly balances a satellite's orbital velocity with the earth's rotational velocity. This means we can install satellite dishes that point to particular locations in the sky, and the satellites won't drift out of view. Because all the satellites lie directly over the equator, and because they are all at the same altitude, the mathematics required to produce viewing angles is relatively simple.
In fact, the challenges in the design of this page and of the similar Java application Satellite Finder lay more in the area of managing a huge database of ZIP codes and associated positions that is presently over 40, records in size. SFO will remember a ZIP code you enter, and when you return to this page assuming you have cookies enabled , it will recompute your last ZIP code entry. Some users will need to enter position coordinates directly, without using the ZIP code database.
One can type in coordinates by hand, but again, if you want to compute a particular position without having to manually enter the values, create an URL like this:. Using this system, one could create a personal list of URLs containing frequently-used ZIP codes or positions, and click the one needed for a specific purpose without having to hand-enter the values.
To compute viewing angles for a location without a listed ZIP code, either:.
