Finding a TV satellite, in azimuth, can be pretty difficult. Before you can find it with a compass you have to do some calculations using GPS location, magnetic variation, compassazimuth and satellite azimuth.
Satellite Director replaces all of that. See tips to success below
Just enable the GPS in your phone or enter your GPS location, select the desired TV satellite and point your phone to the sky to target find the TV satellite. You have found the satellite when the white ball is in the white circle and the cyan ball is in the cyan circle. Align, in azimuth, the offset arm of the satellite dish to the cyan arrow on the phones display and the satellite dish is aligned in azimuth with the satellite.
Selectable audio tone, camera preview, continuous mode no pause, color pickers or a user defined satellite position may make it easier for you to find the desired TV satellite.
The satellite list contains 280 satellites.
Optional you can take a photo resizedscreenshot by touching on the director tab. The photoscreenshot is ONLY stored on the phones memory card.
Optional: you can get an indication when you are to close to iron dishpole in the form of an greenyellowred bar.
Satellite positions are derived from Agi39;s database. Some positions may seem not accurate example: Hispasat 30w is at 2 .96w in the satellite list but they are very accurate.
New phones with Android 4: in case of a wrong compass reading the quot;Settingsquot; screen has options to correct the compass readings
The market page may state this app is compatible with your device but I have learned that that is not always the case. The only sensor you need is orientation compass. Use app quot;Sensor Listquot; to verify that your device has it.
PRECISION DEPENDS ON THE QUALITY OF YOUR HARDWARE.
Metal objects can cause interferences.
Previous versions avialable from my website.
If you have any questions or problems PLEASE write an email. It39;s NOT possible to respond to thereviews

3 tips to success:
1 do NOT go to close to the iron dish or pole keep at least 30 cm distance
2 calibrate the compass of the phone by waving it in a figure 8
3 optional: calibrate the compass of the phone by rolling your phone along its length axis about 23 turns works on some phones
