[QUOTE="jeallen01, post: 1074032, member: 176704"] [USER=332642]@a33[/USER] Ref finding the satellite, if the system incorporates a GPS receiver then it's location could be accurately defined and the dish pointed in the right direction using an internal preprogrammed database - so no need to do too much comparing of signals from different sats. OTOH, maybe the first stage of the two stages highlighted by CH is done by that means, and then the 2nd stage by signal comparisons? In fact that would make sense because the dish could initially be pointing way-off a sought-after sat beam, but a GPS-guided mode could get it quite close to the correct direction, at which point the signal comparison stage can then begin for the final tuning.
