To measure elevation you can buy a simple elevation gauge or protractor.

"Eyeballing" the elevation should get you within 10 degrees of the 
actual elevation which is well within the beam width of your antennas.

When using headphones it's easy to "peak" the antennas by ear.  Simply 
wave the antennas back and forth and stop when you get the best quieting 
(on an FM sat).  Or stop slightly "ahead" of the best quieting, so you 
won't have to adjust it again so soon.
