[QUOTE="keenite, post: 849258, member: 257387"] Hi all, Am helping a friend install a flat sat dish and would appreciate some help with the following: -location: Berlin Germany -satellite: Thor/Intelsat 0.8°W -dish: Selfsat H30 (or equivalent) My specific question: What is the approximate angle to the sky required to receive this satellite? If we define the dish in a perpendicular position as 0°, how many degrees would the dish need to be tilted upward to receive the signal from Thor? The reason I'm asking is that there is a relatively tall tree located about 80-100 feet from the house, and would like to figure out beforehand, whether or not the signal would clear the tip of the tree. Thanks in advance for your help. K [/QUOTE]
