[QUOTE="rolfw, post: 534878, member: 175057"] So you are testing all of those satellites without the dish moving? There is finite spectrum available for ku band satellite transmissions, so each satellite will share common frequencies with its neighbouring satellites. Getting a signal strength reading on all of those satellites without moving the dish, just means that there is a similar frequency on the [B]one satellite[/B], at which you are actually pointing. The way to tell which satellite you are pointing at is to do a scan on a single transponder and check a site like Lyngsat.com to see if the channels correspond. [/QUOTE]
