Calculating the azimuth and elevation to accurately align a satellite dish is no easy task - until now... This calculator
Elevation is measured from the horizon upwards. If it gives a negative value then the satellite is below the horizon, i.e. it’s physically not possible to receive that satellite.
Azimuth is positive clockwise and measured from True North. When using a compass (and not the blue line) you will need to account for magnetic variation.
LNB skew is positve anti-clockwise when facing the dish and is a theoretical value, in practice it may differ.
