Hi guys,
I am moving to central Colorado in about three months and I am needing to make sure I have provisioned myself properly for HD Dish. Right now, I get HD over cable...
I am aware of the location of 110 and 119 in the sky. My new apartment a) has given me permission to put up the Dishes and b) has a perfect, unobstructed view of 110 and 119... by quite a wide, wide margin. It's perfect.
However, my question concerns the location of the 61.5 and 148 sats... where exactly are these in the sky? I have the Dish tool that lets me see elevation and what not, but I am having a hard time figuring out how they determine the position in the sky. Celestial navigation was not a course in college. http://www.avsforum.com/ubb/smile.gif
Anyway, my new apartment has perfect, tree-free rooftop view of the entire SE, S, SW, W, NW, N, sky. The NE, E portions have some trees, but none of them rise above 20 degrees ground level. So, I know 110 and 119 will be received perfectly since I know 110 and 119 are, in Nebraska, SSW at about 40 degrees elevation or so.
Where is 61.5 and 148? Are these two running the same programming? What's the main difference between the two?
