Close...

You need to add 6 degrees to that number and use that on your compass.

so 207.5 + 6 = 213.5 on the compass setting.

That would be in the SouthWest quadrant, with south at 180 and west at 270.

With the elevation at approx 45, go outside where you want to put your dish. Look to the south, then a bit to the right (approximate 213 degrees).

Look up at 45 degree angle. Any trees or anything else blocking the view to the sky? You want a clear shot for this to work...

Good luck.
