The aerial suggested to be used for the reception may be enhanced by using a cross-yagi. It's been used for AMSAT/OSCAR amateur radio communication as preferred option, canceling out most of the polarisation loss due to satellite rotation/tumbling. The complexity on the aerial will increase,but its a "passive" gain,where you will be able to get longer passages on each orbit, and also a steadier signal overall.
