Thanks. This link was helpful, but the set up instructions for the dish and use of the Starlink App raised some additional questions. I live in the woods and I do have some open spots, but nowhere do I have an obstructed view of the sky all the way to the horizon. It seems like I need some angle off the center axis of the dish that needs to be unobstructed. Given that, I can build a jig with a piece of pipe that I can rotate around the dish axis to see that it has a clear view within a certain angle, but according to the 'set up' instructions I won't know the orientation of the dish or it's center axis until I receive it and plug it in so it can locate the satellites.
It seems like I should be able to specify the coordinates for my location and get the required orientation of the dish. At least with that information I'd know how to position my phone camera to best get the view the dish is going to have.
You've already provided me with a lot of information, but if you can think of anything additional regarding how to determine if I have a viable location for the dish, I'd appreciate hearing of it. Perhaps I'm over thinking this, I tend to do that.
