Yeah, it can only be in a fixed location if it is in a "geosynchronous orbit"--it rotates at the same (angular) rate as the Earth--and that is only possible directly over the equator.
If it pointed North and moved around a lot, I suppose it could be tracking a satellite in some other orbit. Or it could be intermittently picking up signals from a passing satellite in some other orbit. But it seems unlikely a TV station would would bother with such a non-standard hookup. - larryy At 12:37 PM -0700 10/20/05, Dan Fuller wrote: >That would be my guess also, because as far as I know all communication >satellites are lined up along the Clarke Belt to the South. > >--- Steven Melching <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > >> Sounds like a local microwave relay to me. >> > > Steve > > >> At 02:01 PM 10/18/2005 +0000, you wrote: >> >> >can anyone tell me what satellite is received from the north.
