Select the satellite you want from the drop down. Zoom out on the map until you can view the CONUS. Then move the "current location" icon on the map to wherever the dish is located--zooming into the street level. It will tell you were to point.

Switch to Satellite view if you want to see actual reference points.

Wally:i don't know what you are setting up--- for Direct tv you need the Elevation and Azimuth--- you can get the #'s from direct tv if you have the zip code in the US i don.'t know if that works in Mexico
