Where to point your dish

42°E is the satellite’s orbital position, not the bearing to use on a compass. This tool measures direction from geographic north. In your phone’s compass app, select geographic north or True North, then find your city’s bearing on the compass.

To fine-tune the dish, an installer moves it horizontally and vertically to find the best signal quality. These values are a starting point; check the quality on your receiver. With browser permission, the “My location” button calculates the angles for your position without sending your coordinates to the site. The city list uses the approximate centre of each city.
