Although not really relevant and won't make a blind bit of difference, if location of latt is 52.17, would you take that as 52.2 with usals being anything above .06 is the next up... if that makes sense  | ||

Blog Entries: 3 My System: Sky+, DB 7000s, Gemini 4.3 in flash, Var on USB stick. Transparent 80cm Dish, Moteck SG2100 DiseqC motor, lots of legacy gear. Meters: Satlook Digital NIT, Unaohm EP313, Swires Annie 204 Spectrum, Rover ST-4 Spectrum. | Well I guess that it also depends on whether the 52.17 coordinate is degrees and minutes or degrees plus a decimal, as the former would be more like 52.3 on your receiver, whereas the latter would be as you say, 52.2. Either way, with and 80 - 90cm dish, it will probably not be overly important.

Just thought 52.17 is closer to 52.2 than 52.1 The technicalities of trying and experimenting ha.... | ||
