Hi Sylvain, May I know what's the setup you used for receiving the signal? The spectrum looks very clear. Best regards, Cheng Chi On Sat, Mar 29, 2014 at 11:39 PM, Sylvain Munaut <246...@gmail.com> wrote: > This is what I found for inmarsat : > > http://i.imgur.com/KygwHdD.jpg > > Some 200 kHz

This is what I found for inmarsat : http://i.imgur.com/KygwHdD.jpg Some 200 kHz channels and some 50 kHz channels. There is also some 30 kHz channels with a small 'X' periodically in the spectrograme. Those are GMR-1 and probably leak through from Thuraya (either reflections off buildings, or my

1531 MHz signals from what? If you are using a patch antenna then it probably won't have the bandwidth to cover 100 MHz. Lou KD4HSO Cheng Chi wrote > - Iridium antenna (I am not able to get specific antennas for > Inmarsat...Iridium is at 1616 -1626.5 MHz and Inmarsat is at 1525-1559 > MHz. > I

Hi, I am trying to receive signal from I-4 satellites of Inmarsat. I found that I-4 satellites have one global beam with 25 KHz bandwidth and several regional beams with 50 KHz bandwidth. However, I have scanned through frequency band 1525-1559 MHz and haven't been able to find those beams. Anyo
