[BC] Satellite Trouble???

[Golchert, Michael A.]

	Correction....mis-read the spec. an.   Actual frequency is right
near 3.670ghz, just below transponder 1...well within the range of AWACS
(or so we have been told).  The dishes that had the MFC filters
installed have not had any issues.
	Sounds to me like AWACS (or something similar) is "lighting up
our life"....again.  Might want invest in MFC stock....if this keeps up,
we are going to need a bunch of those filters.

	Mike, you are correct...look angle is very low...in some cases 8
degrees off the horizon.

	Sorry about the confusion.

12Ghz??  If it were up the uplink...maybe.  Downlink is 4Ghz.  You guys
up in NE look awfully low to get GE-8.

Our stations are fine...we have 4 RX's looking at all 3 players using
SG's.
