[QUOTE="moonbase, post: 1012231, member: 178786"] [USER=402062]@Chris1979[/USER] One method I have used in the past to get the dish/mount pointing at the zenith from my geographic location is to use the position of the sun and the shadow from a vertical feed support arm or vertical string on the face of the dish. The solar noon time in local time can be obtained for any geographic location and is a handy way to get the dish aligned to the zenith in the absence of a very close proximity satellite, depending of course on weather conditions.
