Default Satellite locating tool

@storefull-3173.bay.webtv.net:

Is there a tool that satellite installers use to pinpoint the location
of a satellite - mainly to see if a clear "shot" exists from a given
location?




I'm sure they do. But you can get away with a compass and the elevation
guide supplied to you by your satellite TV company with your hardware.

There are online tools you can use, too:
