[QUOTE="a33, post: 1030229, member: 332642"] NO, and NO. Satellites don't introduce themselves by saying 'Hallo I'm Astra2 on 28.2 east' or so. And they don't have a unique and unchangeable ID, in the sense of a unique social security satellite number which is sent to you, or in the sense that they only transmit in frequencies that other satellites don't use. That is the basis. However some frequencies or combination of frequencies can be typical for only one satellite position, and therefore be used in a satellite meter or receiver for a certain satellite position. However again, these frequencies can change in time, and/or be used by other satellite positions as well, in time. So without checking, you can never be sure. So when you get a strong signal on a satellite, ALLWAYS check if you receive the programms you expect, on the frequencies you expect. One or two frequencies/programms would suffice, when you find only expected programms. When you find unexpected programms (or have to do a blindscan to receive any programm at all), you usually have to check these programms on sites as kingofsat, lyngsat, flysat, ... Kingofsat has a programm-name-search function I believe, to find on which satellite positions a programm can be found. Greetz, A33 [/QUOTE]
