...Now to locate 58W if Carl can be pushed that far..

Blimey - you're getting much better results than I am. I am missing a few transponders that you scanned in. Whether it's my cheapo card, footprint or local conditions is unclear but you're certainly doing well.

OT: will there be support for correct signal readings for 6983 card?

Not doing too bad as far as 55W ...but 58W is no go for me..
Thus it will remain Christinas sole domain...
Clipping a distant bush or tree as Carl is lower sited than Christina..
Then there are issues with the elevation control which is maxed out as the arc has to be compensated for and exceeds the elevation limitation.
Then there is AZ control which is more or less on the end stop at 58W ..
There are 'hints' of signal from 58W ..but no more than hints ..
1 to 1.5db fluctuating wildly...
Ambitious I guess ..but at least I know I can do 55 E to 55W with the above focus mounted C1PLL ...in theory that is.

...Well I'll go thet foot of our stairs ....
Burger me ..
the F15 can't lock it on Carl ...
The TBSD6925 can't lock it ..
but the TBS6983 CAN....
The NRK mux at 4040H SR26590 fec 1/2
it found it on a blind scan
Amaze balls ....
Not enough for a picture lock ...but transponder locked ...and here is the proof.
This card will be some prospect if the RFscan is ever unlocked.
