Hi AMSATERS

The CAPE team is having trouble copying the bacon's from out sat below is a table of our receiver noise with different azimuths notice our system temperature terminated in a 50 resistor is 367 deg k and when connected to an antenna ranges from 4000 to 12000 deg k. The noise appears to be white noise

Question

1. Does this seem reasonable?

2. If the noise is not reasonable how to you go about trouble shooting it?

3. We are concerned about the gain of our antenna to help us trouble shoot this question what is the bacon at 145.935 mhz received level on fundcube-1 what is your antenna gain and what range to the sat did you observe the receive level?
