satellite dish position

[delboy180459]

i already have a minidish (bigger 1 in pipeline) pointing at sky 28.2E i want to move it to 19.2E. ive looked around the net and as far as i can tell i have to move it approx 9 degrees south and 3 up. now what im not sure of is how much of a movement is 9 degrees is it 1/2 inch, 1 inch, 2, 5 any help on this would be appreciated.

i live in s/e essex, england, if that will help.

thanks

(9/180) * pi * distance from pivot to point you're measuring. Move it round by this amount and it should work.

makes no difference. You put in metres, you'll get metres out. etc....
