You need to see south-west to south. Get a compass or look on google earth at your location and figure out what direction you can see. Another hint: the sun sets in the west.

Here's a dish pointing calculator that will tell you what direction you need to look for what satellite:

Look on lyngsat for what is on the sat you might be able to get:

Vito: Your neighbour is most likely pointing to 82W or 91W (Canadian channels). The other alternatives in Toronto area are 119/110W (American channels) or 61.5W (International channels).
