[QUOTE="4wd, post: 1054080, member: 393358"] The sattelite name that shows up is just a label for some collection of stored frequencies\transponders. On receivers one may edit\rename any satellite label to anything one wants, example change Astra19 into being called Somethinginthesky. Whatever it's called, it's just a collection of frequencies\digits which is given a name. What matters is the collection of stored frequencies, that they are current\updated for a given satellite position, and that the bunch of frequencies stored under a sat name\label has a practical name, for freesat something like 28.2 or Astra2, or Ukchannelsfromthesky or whatever. So some signal can appear to be from 'badr' or whatever label that is showing, but it's just that the frequency collection under that label by chance contains some frequencies also present in other sat labels. Example, one may turn a dish 45 degrees from 28.2 to some random sat position, and maybe still find something that would trig a frequency stored under the 28.2 label. Good luck. [/QUOTE]
