North of Madrid (28703 Spain) -3Km of IKEA (40.545847, -3.612012).:-)
This "parked" at the same point on Sunday, 15 jumps more tune east of where 100% of the 2-channel reference use.

new becons of me
11100h
11100H anything/nada.
How much is a jump ? Could it be that 2G goes to 28.5 to the position of the Eutelsat ?
Could you count the jumps between ie 28.2 and 19.2 ?
According to reference engine, are 0'1º and practice is right, what I have in operation since 2004, the first year with DiSEqC 1.2 memorizing on the engine more than 33 satellites.
If the summer tormente that this does not break anything riding up (lightning and hail)

Commented results:
Input is a long journey, acumulare errors, with 20-30 jumps control is good.
Vertical testing tp (14Voltios), horizontal (18Voltios) jumps more.

Of 19'2ºEste 13ºEste are 62 jumps to the west, ok 100%.
Of 19'2ºEste 28'2ºEste are 84 jumps to the east, 100% ok.
Test repeated 4 times in each group of satellites.

By tormente, tested with The Box (12480V27500) or 80% signal during testing.
Verificare after dinner antenna tuning something else.

For a shorter trip, I can try 21'5ºE, 23'5ºE, 25'5ºE or 26ºE where acumulare minor errors.

Segun referencia del motor, son de 0'1º y por la practica es correcto, lo tengo funcionando desde el 2004, los primeros años con DiSEqC 1.2 memorizando en el motor mas de 33 satelites .
Si la tormente de verano que se esta montando encima no rompe nada (rayos y granizo),

Comento resultados:
De entrada es un viaje muy largo, acumulare errores, con 20-30 saltos el control es bueno.
Las pruebas con tp Vertical (14Voltios), con Horizontales (18Voltios) salta mas.

De 19'2ºEste a 13ºEste son 62 saltos al oeste, ok 100%.
De 19'2ºEste a 28'2ºEste son 84 saltos al este, ok 100%.
Repetido 4 veces la prueba en cada grupo de satelites.

Por la tormente, probado con The Box (12480V27500), ni 80% de señal durante las pruebas.
Verificare despues de cenar afinando algo mas la antena.

Para un viaje mas corto, puedo probar con 21'5ºE, 23'5ºE, 25'5ºE o 26ºE, donde acumulare menor errores.

PD: It is the first satellite so I fish/No es el primer satelite que pesco asi.

That would mean more 29,5 than 28,5. Hm. Weird. And no clear skies tonight :(
