I have just put together a page to help people
find their latitude and longitude. |

I think your new map is pretty good. Takes a
little getting used to, but what doesn't? Course I don't know a
whole lot, not having a satellite TV or being able to start a new
thread (I can't find the
satellite
internet forum board index page ) so I must ask while I'm on the
system now. Azimuth and elevation angles I understand, but I've been
(feels like all over) on net and can't find a definition of skew and
polarization angles. Think I saw something which said that skew was
equal to the longitude of satellite, but not sure I believe it.
Also, which satellites are for DirectTV and which are for DishTV.
Sorry to sneak in questions like this. Maybe you can tell me how to
post since I can't seem to figure it out. Thanks for
your time. |

Eric, Great idea, I like the
gui approach to finding the info. I think many users will like the
visual method, instead of digging though drop down boxes used in
some other tools. |
