I get a fairly good signal for satellite #37 (and sometimes others in the range 32-51) using Gillson antenna, but white bars never turn to black even after a long wait.

#37 changes into #51 on the display every now and then.

I've not been able to see a D in months :(

BTW, I'm based in north Italy.

Any hint - idea?

Thanks,
Bruno

The bars for the Egnos sats don't have to be black. Differential data can be transmitted anyway.

However, most of the time (recently), #37 have been transmitting the DNU (Do Not Use) signal, which means that the iQue will stop listening to it and look for something else. I have a program that allows me to see this, so I know this for sure.

#44 has been the best one, as far as providing useful data goes.
