Need Help Please (satellite pointing) Mulege area
Jimena tore down my old sat dish along with most the the roof. I've installed a new 1.2m dish and could use a little help in pointing it in the right
direction (mulege area).
Can anyone tell me the appx. elevation and degrees south to point for sat 101??
Muchas Gracias

Check with Los Frailes. Are you on high ground? Seriously, wait until Hurricane Rick passes before you try to position your dish. Otherwise, it could
become a periscope or a twirling weather vane or even a UFO.

This is a great site for pointing your sat dish. Gives you all the sats available, and uses your exact lat/long location.
Use the active map to drag the location finder right to your front door.
Good Luck
Now you can watch all of the reports on "Rick". Pretty scarry.
