28.2°E is on a meridian somewhere towards the far end of the Med. I'm
guessing an Arabic station?

No, 28.2 is the Astra constellation of satellites used for Sky etc

Stick it on a southern-facing wall, not eastern-facing.

There is enough adjustment in a minidish mount to go on either. As a
rough guide the direction to face the dish is the same as the sun at
about 1020 GMT so anywhere that is well illuminated by direct sunlight
around that time can be a site for a dish. Note that this is only the
horizontal direction and is on bearing around 145 degrees. The elevation
(up/down) to the satellites is about 30 degrees.
