Hi Pride ...
Sorry cant reach that sat with my circular l.n.b. ... (wrong side offset)
I was confused by the AIT channels as they used be at 50 W and were linear as i recall ... and i can reach 58 west with linear ...
regards :)

* This could be something local to me causing this 'Mexican Wave' occurance on RHC ??, LHC is flat with no frequencies present or interference.

Wow - that's weird! I get a similar thing - the signal keeps drifting in and out. It's calm and the dish is at the stable end of the arc (jack arm on the west side)... atmospherics or something else?

... still doing it's party trick today at 9.15 am. It's being left a bit long to get fixed if it's a transponder fault as it definately causing service intermittent loss on Africable Tv.

Also getting the fading effect here using the 2.4. Maisha has a greater swing in signal strength between 2.2-8.4dB and breaks up, Africable isn't so extreme between 3.5-7.6dB so remains locked.
