Two, Three Stricks, you're OUT?

OK, recently in my area their has been a lot of wind. As times goes by. The dishes need readjustment. I call that maintenance's. You get a ladder go up and find that the weather has taken its tole on the equipment. So, new cable, fittings etc. But when it comes to re-aligning the dishes. Well, you go to your local computer website and give the zip code and general area and bingo, you have instant elevation, Lat, Long etc.

But I made a test. I only told the website that I had only one dish Echostar 7 (119W). the results were in, great.

Then I gave ( as a single dish) numbers for Echostar 6,8 (110W) Elevation were slightly different. (?)

Then I gave the information that I had two dishes and the results were different again?

Which numbers will I use tomorrow morning when I adjusting both dishes?
