[QUOTE="Analoguesat, post: 75695, member: 176362"] The satellites operate in a "box" about 75 miles on a side - this ensures no accidental meetings. They are so far away that they all appear to be co-located in space which is why the dish gets signals off all of them. The signals sleet down from space and bathe all of Europe in low level microwaves. The dish concentrates the signals sufficiently to allow the pictures carried within them to be resolved. [/QUOTE]
