+ | * We clearly saw all 5 satellites, although with significant variability in signal strength. | ||
+ | * We can clearly see the effects of the step tracking approach. | ||
+ | * I also monitored the DBBC IF attenuation during the run and at first glance it appears that the AGC loop had sufficient head room to maintain control (for my record keeping this was with 12 dB additional attenuation at the DBBC inputs). | ||
+ | * The slewing gap between recording seemed to be correct, I observed the antenna reach tracking position on all slews just before "record on" was commanded. | ||
