[QUOTE="dxsat, post: 420934, member: 193607"] Many FTA receivers are not as sensitive as the best Sky Digiboxes. Fringe 2D reception: It's a complex mix of factors, earth's distance from sun, ambient temperature, water vapour in the troposphere, local pollution, station-keeping and probably few other things I haven't thought of. I don't think Astra turn up the power in the autumn. Dr Kelso explains it quite well [URL="http://www.celestrak.com/columns/v04n09/"]HERE[/URL] The most striking graph is this one, the data is old but this pattern repeats each year. 2D reception is very similar, based on my own observations.
