    i thought sly used 28. ,if your path is blocked by trees,it would depend if other sats are blocked also.if other sats are gettable you might get something.

    If he's pointing the dish at 13E then he's not using the direct line which most Sly Installers and even myself use now, if the trees are not too high then there shouldn't have been a problem with it.
    I actually use an iPhone app now when checking out an install which will actually show you if there are any obsticals in the way. If you have an iPhone 3GS then check out the app called DP AR Pro. For others who want to install a dish and also have an iPhone 3GS the same company does another great app called DP Maps which uses Google Maps and the built-in compass to show you where to point your dish.

    These 2 apps combined will help setup either a fixed or motorized dish.
