Part 6/10:
Weak Satellite Signal: Galaxy 18, the satellite in question, is described as a relatively weak signal, making it difficult to find amidst strong competitor signals.
Lack of Active Beacons: The signals broadcasted from the satellite were not functioning correctly during initial attempts, causing significant confusion and misalignment of the equipment.
Alignment Precision: Success with larger dishes often relies on careful alignment, but the precise focal points can be difficult to maintain and may require frequent adjustments.
