David brought his dish to my location -- about fifty miles from his service loacation and in a different cell and it could not connect. We had a clear view of the entire sky. He speculated that that was because it was registered to use a specific ground station that was out of range at my place. Does that seem reasonable?

Service may perfect, or may be worse (all the way to non-existant) depending on how many other dishes are in use in the area. I've done some limited testing with my dish within about 15 miles of my registered location (in both cases with less than optimal sky views) and it's worked without a hitch. I plan to do a test further away this weekend (but in a less populated area, so I have high hopes) David Lang On Mon, 14 Feb 2022, Jonathan Bennett wrote: > It appears that there is now a system in place for Starlink to re-connect > even if you are outside your official service cell.
