Satellite AcquiSition -IOR - (assuming ships head 0000 or assuming your equipment
can adjust automatically for ship's head, once entered by the operator)
Example 1 - Vessel 'A' requires Azimuth 260 Elevation 15 to hit the satellite.
Example 2 - Vessel 'B' requires Azimuth 080 Elevation 15 to hit the satellite.

Antenna Radiation Hazard (Inmarsat-A, Inmarsat-B, Inmarsat-M IMini-M)
All transmitting antennas generate hazardous radiation. In the case
of Inmarsat-A, Inmarsat-B and Inmarsat-M/Mini-M, the extent of the
hazard is a factor of:
