[QUOTE="Satfaca, post: 1155216, member: 297203"] People learn this "science" step by step, it took me 25 years to understand certain issues with satellite reception and this was only possible after I've tested tens of dishes, feedhorns, LNBs, cable types, dish movers/motors, satellite replacements ... and another 5 years to accidentally find out how to "squeeze" a weak signal through a 5° skew gap between extra strong transponders of the opposite polarity in order to get permanent reception of the HD channels from ASTRA 2 UK's beam 1000 km away from it. "Small dish men" inside certain footprint areas cannot experience any major changes (if at all) while reception on the outskirts or complete out of the footprint can see drastic changes in reception. With a pinpointed large PFA antenna there is absolutely no difference in azimut for any of the frequencies from either BADR 4, 5, 7 or 8, there is however big difference to pinpoint Es'hail 1 or 2. Why Moonbase's 0.2° moves result in increase/decrease of the signal... it can have several explanation theories but certainly not the azimut/location of the satellites. Those who have played this game do understand what I am writing about, those who don't or are not willing to understand, those can take this as a challange to "explore further". Will be glad to assist...:Y:) [/QUOTE]
