[QUOTE="Orthoclipse, post: 373790, member: 190790"] From reading up a bit more on this, it would appear that satellites are in full view of the sun for most of the year. So any drop in power from the panels occurs over the period of a year and not over the course of 24 hours. Good explanation here: h**p://celestrak.com/columns/v04n09/ Which points more towards small fluctuations or inclination in a satellites orbit over a 24 hours period which would be more noticeable in marginal areas with fringe reception. It would also give a better account as to why some satellites are worse during the day and better at night. [/QUOTE]
