As for the receiver. 11836 is stronger than 12146 regardless of the reason. I had so many trouble calls where only channels on 11836 are available because of low signal. I do not agree with people who go very deep in the technology of the satellites when replying to a simple question. I know it might be good to have this knowledge, but when a simple question is being asked, it would be nice to have a simple answer.
