Hello,

I’m just asking if anyone has downloaded the Astra pointer application on an Honor 8S and if it works because I have geolocation but not the moving pointer
Thanks for your responses
Best regards

Configuration: Android / Chrome 90.0.4430.82

    Hello,
    These apps are often disappointing...
    For the dish alignment, use this site as a reference:
    https://www.dishpointer.com/
    -Enter your full address on the left
    -Select from the right list 19.2° East (Astra)
    -Click on "Search!" next to your address,
    -Zoom in on the map with the + button to clearly locate your house
    -Set the target at the location of your dish by performing a "click-and-drag" and use a nearby object in the surroundings to orient yourself (tree, house), first in direction then in elevation.
    At the bottom right of the map you have the elevation, azimuth and the rotation direction in degrees of the head in its collar (adjustment of cross-polarization) last line "LNB Skew" it's very important.
    Also use the bar graphs of the decoder by communicating with someone in front of the screen by phone to refine the adjustment which, in principle, should be done with a satellite pointer. .
