A receiving earth station set up at Akure (lat. 7.28°N, long. 5.2°E) for this study accessed eight space stations and a 40 Mhz oscilloscope measured the audio components of the signals received. The propagation losses incurred, the figures of merit of the space transmitter and the receiver are estimated. The results show that in clear weather conditions, the path loss capability exceeds the actual path loss for each channel. The actual path loss is mainly due to free space path loss. Satellite audio signals can conveniently be transmitted from Atlantic ocean region, Indian ocean region and Pacific ocean region and received intelligent output at any part of Akure with a parabolic dish antenna of 0.5 efficiency.
