Hi Guys,

I am wondering if anyone has the azimuth and elevation for t5 for Saint John, New Brunswick and which channel should I be on to find it... thanks :confused:

Saint John NB 45.2°N / 65.5°W
Dish Angles for Intelsat America 5 (IA5) a.k.a. Telstar 5 (T5) - Satellite 97°W
Azimuth 220.8°W True - add approx 19° for magnetic deviation = 239.8°W
Elevation 29.4°
Skew Turn LNBF Counter-clockwise 27.4°

ALTERNATIVELY
put you postal code in the box at this web site, and it will give you the Magnetic Azimuth:

PS Hopefully you already found this info.
I am a newcomer to Free to Air satellites and am learning as I go.
I am surprised how little traffic there is on the FTA forum.
One thing I read recently is that you need a larger dish (90 cm+) and an LNB that receives lower frequencies - I think around 17 to 21 GHz range.
