cantuseacompass is on a distinguished road
So we bought this satellite....

Hi,

My husband bought a satellite and we may end up getting a professional to install it but we we're wondering, before we call some one how can we tell which direction it will point in? Is that the Azimuth?

we are trying to point it at Intelsat america 5 , 97W
it is a stationary fortec star classic
I went to the help page and it says elevation 44.5
azimuth 207.5
but what does that mean in relationship to the numbers on the compass
our lat is 36
long 80
i don't remember if there was anything else i am supposed to tell you guys as far as information is concerned

Thank you

Lisa
