A satellite signal acquiring apparatus includes antenna, azimuth motor, elevation motor, main body, inclination sensor and processor. Antenna receives radio wave from a communication satellite. Azimuth motor rotates the antenna in azimuth angle direction. Elevation motor changes elevation angle of the antenna. Main body is equipped with the antenna, the azimuth motor, and the elevation motor. Inclination sensor obtains inclination information of the main body. Processor corrects the elevation angle based on inclination information to hold the elevation angle of the antenna in an earth coordinate system constant regardless of an azimuth angle of the antenna. Processor acquires the communication satellite signal based on reception intensity of the radio wave.
