This will automatic calculates and discover the correct satellite dish coordinates for your location. It shows the compass direction coordinates, your reception angle coordinate and the Low Noise Block skew coordinate LNB twist setting.
Write down the coordinates parameters on a sheet of paper so that you can access it easily while trying to aligning the dish. Alternatively, You can make use of Dish Pointer App to get satellite dish coordinates without a your location zip code. I hope you find this post interesting, feel free to share it.
