I'm going up to the cottage friday and want to install my 33" dish to get G10R. I have 2 FTA ird's with blind scan and found out my postal code is K0M 2AO, cottage is in Kinmount,Ontario,Canada.I could use any help me aiming this and i do have a sat finder.

Thanks in advance

you are just a few miles north of me.

22.5 degrees elevation on the dish
245 degrees on a compass setting (235 + 10 magnetic adjustment)
Tilt the LNB 32 degrees (COUNTER-clockwise while looking at the dish, bottom would be 4pm on a clock...)

that should get you close.

(edit to fix LNB skew...)

wouldnt it be counterclockwise? I know in Minnesota for G10 the LNB is at 5:00 for G10

yes, it would. Counterclockwise - brain fart - I'll edit my response...
