Satellite Finder compass

The Satellite Finder Compass Chrome extension is a powerful tool for anyone who needs to accurately locate and align satellite dishes. It offers precise calculations for elevation, azimuth, and skew angle based on your GPS location and chosen satellite from an extensive list of over 280 satellites.

This tool is especially handy for free-to-air satellite enthusiasts as it simplifies the traditionally complex process of satellite dish alignment. It features an integrated compass (magnetometer required), augmented reality view to visually locate satellites via your device's camera, and audio feedback to assist you.

Key functionality includes positioning your device to match satellite coordinates, real-time alignment guidance, and an optional photo or screenshot feature for record-keeping. Its interface blends numeric data and graphical Google Maps visualization, helping ensure an accurate satellite setup. Note that a functioning compass sensor on your device is required. This extension replaces tedious manual calculations and calibration, making satellite dish installation faster and more precise.
