Hispasat @ 10.2° Elevation
Hello. I am in Duluth, MN, and would like to receive Hispasat, at least temporarily just to check it out. I have an 80cm dish and STAB HH120 H-H positioner. Is it possible for me to set the positioner up to see this low? Or would I have to mount the dish sans the positioner?
Thank you.

10.2 is not viewable from your location, its below the horizon

No, it's at 10.2° elevation above the horizon. Normally you'd say it's at about 30° W.

sorry man, i didnt read the titles correctly, 10.2 elevation is real hard to get anyway, but 80cm is barely enough for the size, you may be able to get it, i tried getting a satellite at 11.0elevation, i spent 3 hours tring to get it, i never did

txdxer - We're you ever able to hispasat? I live just south of you in Forest Lake, MN and have thought about trying to do the samething.

To determine the dish size you need to see how strong hispasat signal is in dbw in your area. And for 10 degrees you need a clear view of sky and to be almost free of any immediate obstructions. I saw the footprint and for Duluth it seems to be between 45 or 46. According to Sadoun's chart an 80cm MIGHT do it. 90cm and over should do it.
