Note the key in the top left-hand corner. The dark horizontal line denotes the HSK and HSKX (i.e. Tidbinbillla) view period. The thick horizontal line denotes the HSKP (i.e. Parkes) view period. This is shorter because, due to mechanical constraints, the Parkes dish cannot point lower than 30° above the horizon.
