[QUOTE="BM300, post: 917778, member: 247938"] As we all know, the geosynchronous satellites are located at what is known as Clark belt (called after Arthur C Clark) who thought about stationing satellites at 36,000 kilometers above earth equator to move at the same speed as that of earth rotation. These satellites can bounce the signal transmitted to them back to earth. So the satellites appear fixed from any geographical location on earth. When the sun occupies a slot behind a satellite (on certain dates), the electromagnetic noise from the sun masks the signal reflected to earth from the satellite. It is useful to know when is the sun outage occurs for a particular satellite when installing it. As the signal from that satellite will be reduced or not detectable. (very much like having a flood light behind a candle. The light from the candle will be almost impossible to see). Few hours later and all is back to normal and the installation is easy. [/QUOTE]
