I just installed a new dish but I was wondering what Azimuth is or located on the dish. I have adjusted the elevation and the skew and can't find out what or where the azimuth is.

here you go scabz if you use the site which i provided it shows you pictues on the azimuth.

True Azimuth: 224.96
Magn. Azimuth: 229.86

Magnetic azimuth should be used when using an uncorrected compass.
Dish Elevation: 37.15
Skew Angle: 118.7 Always make sure your mast is installed corectly and that it's plumb all around or these settings may not work for you.

scabz the azimuth is the side to side movement. Use a compass to find the general location and then set dish there and fine tune right to left
