[QUOTE="RimaNTSS, post: 1007552, member: 312276"] Took (actually programmed DM8000 did) measurements of signals from 12 birds starting from 7:00 till 16:35 local time today. From data collected build this graph. Vertical axis is signal strength in dB, and horizontally time of the day. What is seen from this graph? ..... On some satellites there are complete lose of signal (below lock), on some just considerable drop. On some satellites I observed some difference between calculated time of maximum outage from real time of maximum outage time. So what? Perhaps antenna is not tuned properly or calculator does not give exact data? The main conclusion- yes, sun outage is taking place and it is interesting bi-annual time of the year when people can have some experiments. Surely, I had some fun. Will shut up (at least in this thread :-doh ) till October, if no extraordinary discussions happen. :) [/QUOTE]
