I need the angle and elevation to set my dish to 121 degress. My zip is 85016. Can someone please help? Thanks.

Thanks for the link. I tried the angle for 121W and I got 195 for my zip 85016. I couldn't set it to this angle but I could set it to 220. However, the channel I was looking for does not exist in this setting. Do you think I did not try enough? I have a Dish 500. Please help.

121 is low power FSS, requires a bigger dish and linear LNBF. What channels are you wanting to get and what receiver model are you using?

Iceberg is an expert in this area, he will probably want to help you out.

I am using Pansat2700A.

Also, I have no clue how to use Latitude & Longitude info and turn into Azimuth angle. Do you know what the below info would correspond to in azimuth and elevation terms?

Latitude 33° 30.126'N Longitude 112° 1.830'W
