[QUOTE="Lazarus, post: 642099, member: 323322"] Don't bother with a Compass. It'll be badly affected by the presence of the Dish. Also, you can't work out the desired Bearing quite as easily as you might imagine. It depends upon your location, for a start and their are all sorts of Magnetic and other anomalies that make it soooo much easier just to find it by common sense and a bit of elbow grease. All you need do is move the Dish 9 degrees further East and raise the Elevation very slightly. That should get you on 28E. This issue of getting 19.2E instead is [I]very[/I] common indeed! Solved in minutes ............. :) Do it NOW. You know it makes sense! [/QUOTE]
