Practical methods of aiming antennas at geostationary satellites / I.A. Reid.: En36-503/104E-PDF
"The procedure for aligning Data Collection Platform (DCP) antennas in the Geostationary Operational Environmental Satellite (GOES) System is presented. A method is given for determining (a) the angle of elevation and (b) the azimuth or bearing, to which an antenna must be set to bring it in line with a satellite. Two detailed methods, one using a compass and the other a watch, are presented for setting an antenna on the predetermined bearing"--Abstract, p. v.
