Claim 9:
10. The method of claim 1, wherein upon receiving an indication to acquire a second satellite, further comprising:
selecting a subset of the receive panels and directing the subset to the second satellite, while maintaining communication with the current satellite via remaining panels;
upon receiving signal from the second satellite, for each of the receive panels of the subset, determining whether parameters of a receive signal from the current satellite exceeds a preset threshold;
grouping all receive panels of the subset having the parameters of the receive signal exceeding a preset threshold to form a second receive group;
from the second receive group determining which receive panel has the highest scored parameter of the receive signal; and,
selecting the associated transmit panel of the receive panel from the subset having the highest scored parameter and directing transmission through the selected associated transmit panel, thereby maintaining communication with the current satellite and the second satellite simultaneously.
