Adding declination control (Fibo 90)

[Captain Jack]

wow.. I'll see if I can catch it. Also will check 47W - I can move the dish north/south so will see what I can lock on there (looks like a couple of data transponders).

Is anyone playing with wireshark for data with any success please.

AMC-14 at 29.5 E will cross in 2 hours 18:07 UTC, in my settings I have (L or R pol.):

Update after check:
12405 SR 5820 2/3 8PSK is still there and the easiest one to lock.
The other two mentioned are gone. Instead there are:
12530, 12559, 12588, all with SR 18750 5/6 16APSK.

I get the best dB values choosing H pol.
For the 16APSK signals, needed to point beyond 30 East for the best values. No doubt to suppress the 28.2 East signals.

Will give 29.5E a try later this evening.

Yes I will have a go, I lost track of time yesterday and missed the slot .

I will have to have another go tomorrow 90 mph + winds here when she was coming inline. I just could not manage a lock, nice to see her signal come in then start to go.

CJ, I just cut a section off the thread with an angle grinder. My guess is that cutting with a hacks would be difficult because that rod is probably case hardened steel.
