Karl, have a look a the bible of satellite pages.<br /> www.lyngsat.com<br />151 degrees east, 33.5 degrees south will get you more than close enough for everybody in sydney.<br /><br />Look up NSS6 under frequencies, Asia.<br />click on 'sattracker' on the top of the page, it'll open another small window with a map of the world on it. Click on where Sydney is. <br /> If you want to be fussy, 150.69 E 33.3 S is good enough.<br /> This will give you an Azimuth of 290.52 (290)<br />and an elevation of 19.88 (20).<br /><br />290 degrees azimuth is from true north.<br />360-290=70 degrees (to the west) add 11 degrees to that if you're using a magnetic compass.<br />81 degrees to the west from magnetic north.<br />Set the dish to 20 degrees above the horizon. If you're using a small offset dish, some offsets actually look like the are pointing down for this satellite.
