[QUOTE="moonbase, post: 1155108, member: 178786"] I got an odd result today from my test scans with Badr-8. After creating a table with a list of Badr-8 frequencies common to both Lyngsat and Flysat I measured the dB level using a Dr HD F15 receiver. I thought I would check to see if the dish was peaked on the satellite so nudged it 0.2 degrees East and measured the dB levels again. Three of the 16 frequencies I measured in the list increased in dB level due to the 0.2 degrees East nudge Twelve of the 16 frequencies decreased in dB level, one was practically no change. The table is attached below. If anyone else wishes to try the same test it would be interesting to see the results? There could be some anomaly at play from the beams as I am located in the UK. Some of these frequencies are fringe reception, out of beam. Or, the three frequencies that increased are not on the same satellite as the twelve frequencies that decreased from the 0.2E nudge? .
