GA Guys,

 

I thought I would pass this on since you have both speculated or commented on possible interference from the Galileo satellite system. It does appear to be present.  I am in Arizona USA now and have noticed a couple of times where a signal will come drifting through the frequency…once on 1296.060 and today on 1296.100. The carrier was very clean and smoothly moving slowly across the frequency.  Today I captured a screen picture of the carrier trace…its was stronger than that …when I pointed the terrestrial antenna more closely.  There appears to be multiple carriers about 12 kHz apart so not a big problem for interference potential, however with an  EME antenna pointed at it , maybe the potential for overload is there?? See the link below for more information on the satellite system
