Didn't there used to be a website that allowed you to enter latitude & longitude then returned with solar outage info for various satellites ? For the life of me, I can't remember what the URL is/was.

IIRC, you can determine satellite dish placement based on where sunny / shady areas are if you check at a certain time of day during spring and fall, and there was a site that could give you the times & dates if you know the exact latitude & longtiude co-ordinates.
