[QUOTE="Terryl, post: 1162090, member: 369937"] Everything looks good for the last few days, so I wounder what was going on?? On another note, I have observed the satellites at night when they pass over, (some are hard to see but I have zero light intrusion) I find that the missing data (the dead bands on the image) may be due to when the satellite and the antenna are at the same horizontal plane. Now the antenna I'm using is a home brew and it's receiving elements are in the horizontal plane, I'm wondering if I should tip (bend) them down about 20 to 30 degrees, this may make the dead bands go away when the satellites are at a lower azimuth and crossing over from below the antenna elements to the top side. It may be worth a try, but it's going to be wayyyy to hot today, it's supposed to be over 40 degrees C today, so I'm staying in. [/QUOTE]
