Hi Nigel, et. al., I just changed the setting to C/No with the help of the instructions posted here; learned yet something else. With that I now get between 30 and 36dBc/Hz C/No (at night, which usually results in higher values than during daylight). I am impatient, and expect my equipment to be plug-and-play, this is what cause my frustration and surprise in the first place, since I did not have a problem with this antenna feed in the past. Due to the lack of a "lock" LED, and these issues, I guess I will have to dedicate an RS-232 to constantly monitor the unit, and be content with it's performance when connected to the splitter. That's better than drilling another hole into the wall and mounting another antenna on the roof. Thanks for everyone's help, bye, Said In a message dated 11/22/2009 12:14:01 Pacific Standard Time, [email protected] writes:
Just out of interest, what levels of AMU are you seeing reported? According to Trimble's Thunderbolt Monitor version 2.6 the six satellites I'm tracking right now are showing AMU values of over 40 and another stops tracking when its AMU drops to approx 33 but starts tracking again at a reported AMU of approx 36 to 37. _______________________________________________ time-nuts mailing list -- [email protected] To unsubscribe, go to https://www.febo.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/time-nuts and follow the instructions there.
