I hadn't noticed this one before. Interesting service! Also very
interesting is the calculator at his "beta test site", which accepts ZIP
code or Lat/Lon location, date and time, and satellite name. It then
returns gnomon angle and length. I assume these correspond to the settings
for the dish aiming tool on the page above. Can't find anything describing
how to construct the gnomon/tool, though! One obvious missing bit of data
is the height of the tool.
