I am on land. The antenna is sitting in my front yard. I have done quite a bit of experimenting with the antenna. I have moved the antenna several times and always, within about 15 minutes, it finds its optimum orientation, which is due north with an elevation of about 30 degrees. Once at that position, it doesn't move again.

The "Network issue" still appears, with outages of about 15 seconds. Delving into the "Network issue", it is a problem with the satellite itself communicating with the internet. That is somewhat disturbing, as it seems that the satellites should pretty much always have connectivity with the internet.
