This is an old thread but since nobody tried to clear it up, why not?
First of all, I'm not a "flat earther"... on the other hand I'm not a "round earther" either. Fact is, I don't know what to believe at this point. All I know for sure is that something is seriously amiss and people are caching on to it fast. I can't give you a definitive answer on WHERE satellite dishes are getting all of their signals from... but I'm fairly certain it's not from satellites. Rather than write a novel about it, watch this:
" class="bbc_link" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">In a nutshell, the thermosphere (the area of the atmosphere where satellites supposedly orbit) is between 600c=2000c... hot enough to melt virtually every single piece of a satellite. No satellite in orbit could exist in there thermosphere. Not one. This is a scientific fact, not an opinion.
Why is it so hard to get a "satellite" signal in the middle of a place like Northern Nevada or Montana (which is hundreds of miles away from the closest tower)? Why would a signal coming STRAIGHT from a satellite be crystal clear in say L.A. but be not existent in ONLY places hundreds of miles away from the nearest towers?
Why is a "Satellite Phone" just a regular cell phone with a BIG ass antenna on it?
As far as WHERE the signal is coming from? Here are a few theories:
Blimps, like the ones used for "Google Loon".
http://www.google.com/loon/ are used in some remote areas to boost signals.
Maybe satellites are receiving signals bounced off the inside of the dome or maybe there are transmitters built into the dome itself?
At any rate, ALL of the signals ARE of course coming from land based towers. Where some of the signal boosters are located... varies.
So there are a few "theories". Now at least someone gave one. Can I prove these theories to be true? Nope. But what I can prove is that satellites will melt like wax in the blast furnace known as the thermosphere...
