To calculate the elevation that would incorporate the skew angle of the satellite terminal:
1.
Confirm the correct curve for the longitude delta (Δ) calculated for the Skew Calculation.
2. Find latitude on the horizontal axis.
3. Find where the curve for the calculated delta intersects the latitude value.
4. Read off the vertical axis for the elevation angle.
Example:
Earth station location: 001° 02’ 49” W 51° 09’ 02” N (51.151°, -001.047°)
Satellite Location:
62.6° E
Longitude Delta:
(-001.047 - 62.6) = -63.65°
