Dish Aligner calculates the exact pointing angles needed to align your satellite dish at Astra 2 (28.2°E) from anywhere in the UK. Enter your postcode or tap "Use my location" — Dish Aligner instantly gives you the precise azimuth, elevation and LNB skew for your exact location. Follow the live compass needle to face the right direction, set the elevation using the on-screen guide, and twist the LNB to the skew angle shown. FEATURES — Precise azimuth, elevation and LNB skew calculated from your exact location — Live compass needle rotates in real time as you turn — no more guessing — Elevation bar shows exactly how high to tilt your dish above the horizon — "Aligned!" indicator glows green and vibrates when you're on the correct bearing — GPS or postcode input — no sign-in required — Supports Astra 2 (28.2°E), Eurobird 1, Astra 1 (19.2°E), and Hotbird (13.0°E) — All calculations done on-device — no internet connection needed — No account, no tracking, no subscription IDEAL FOR — Homeowners realigning a dish after storm damage or roof work — Moving house with an existing satellite dish — Caravan and motorhome owners who set up at new sites — Narrowboat owners — Satellite engineers wanting a quick field reference — First-time dish installers who need precise angles, not guesswork HOW IT WORKS Point your dish at Astra 2 at 28.2°E — the orbital position that carries BBC, ITV, Channel 4 and Channel 5 in the UK. The azimuth (compass bearing), elevation (vertical tilt) and LNB skew vary depending on where you are in the UK. Dish Aligner calculates all three from first principles using your exact GPS coordinates, so you always get the right angles for your location. PRIVACY Dish Aligner collects no personal data. Location is used only on-device to calculate pointing angles — nothing is sent to any server. Built for iPhone. iOS 17 or later required.
