Your guess is as good as mine and a reasonable assumption as to which satellite is being received. Since moving location approx 10 months ago I currently do not have a communications mast or tower therefore in true military fashion, my Dorne & Margoline is sitting on the floor pointing out the patio door over the horizon. I am well within the footprint of both UFO 10 and UFO 8. I am located in N.E. Canada (Grid: FN08) and the antenna is pointing at 190 deg (magnetic).

Where are you getting your TLEs for FLTSATCOM 2 and FLTSATCOM 7 (USA 20)? They do not appear to be included in current TLE files (unless they now go by some strange catalogue name).

Of the remaining FLTSATCOM series, FLTSATCOM 2 is the only one with a footprint into my current location.
