[QUOTE="Skip Channel, post: 304431, member: 175117"] I was messing about with my Porty dish at my parents' place a couple of months ago and was trying to get 13e through an open window. The dish had to be pointing at 13e or to west of 13e. I somehow managed to get a couple of transponders on 28e. I was amazed when I did the TP scan and saw BBC 1 (or 2) regions! I would say it was definately the open window bouncing the signal, even if it was scattering it all over the place. On these two (maybe more) frequencies it just happened to be scattering enough of the signal towards the Porty dish. Opening the window further (whilst not moving the dish anywhere) meant the signals disappeared - even though that meant the dish had far less window obscuring it. [/QUOTE]
