Maybe it would help if I rephrase my question.
First, I know they use spot beams, and I understand what spot beams are. I've seen the map of their beams, and believe it or not, I'm capable of determining where on that map I am located.
My question is what technical measures are in place that would prevent someone from relocating the dish within the same spot beam? I've checked and the proper tools are available, and not even expensive.
Let's assume a move from the exact center of the beam to a location 2 miles away. You're all saying it's not possible. Fine, I'm perfectly willing to accept that. Here's my question: Why?
