Clicking on the map shows EIRP (satellite signal strength) and the recommended minimum dish size for that region (please note that recommended dish size refers to receive and not transmit dish size). Clicking also shows the look angle to the satellite from any installation location. (Elevation Angle is from the horizon, and True Azimuth is an approximate compass heading).
