[QUOTE="Channel Hopper, post: 1078427, member: 175144"] I can't help either, though I am working towards a Ka band system for Christmas. From the Norad files WGS9 [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.n2yo.com/?s=42075[/URL] 56.75 E Intelsat - 5F4 [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.n2yo.com/satellite/?s=42698[/URL] 56.60E The positions will have an accuracy relative to the positioning of the two satellites, that is defined by the station keeping crew that are assigned to maintain efficiency of the fuel on board, with the caveat 'because there is little else out there, you can let it go if it saves a bit of propellant'. Since both satellites are a good few 000 kilometers away from each other (in three dimensions) and there is not much else at the orbital locations, I would suspect they are happy to let a few hundredth of a degree slide if it means a few months more of downlinking. Have you tried a smaller dish on the position ? [/QUOTE]
