stored Ts file and put it in IQmonitor I get these images
*unfortunately I cant get signal with IQmonitor or Crazyscan for 12538H5000 so I stored a broken TS file with EBSpro

Now I can't see channels and I cant store any broken TS files
certainly the signal will be gone at the sun rise !

MY bad scan for this position

empty transponder here
12547 H 1107 8psk 3/4

02 locked transponders with my small dish :

12573,V,1750 DVB-S QPSK 3/4 signal not stable now .

12592,V,1700 DVB-S2 QPSK 3/4

Looking at my result to day I can see that my beam is ECOWAS2 in Horizontal polarity

[SATTYPE]

1=0425

2=1.80m/IBU +C_feed

[DVB]

0=5

1=12517,H,29500,35,2 ;7.2 (1.7) dB; 21:11 8/9/2023

2=12538,H,4999,34,2 ;7.8 (-0.11) dB; 21:11 8/9/2023 ...............locked at the limit !

3=12545,H,6165,34,2 ;7.3 (-0.61) dB; 21:11 8/9/2023

4=12554,H,8199,34,2 ;7.6 (3.57) dB; 21:11 8/9/2023

5=12588,H,26250,34,2 ;8.4 (4.37) dB; 21:11 8/9/2023

sadly for my first transponder reported in this thread " 12538 H 5000" was 8.2 dB with 0.90m....05 years go

now it is 7.9 dB with 1.80m

ECOWAS1 in Vertical polarity

Very hard to tell situation in vertical polarity since Turksat_4a south_beam activation

For now -and at this moment- I can see traces from 12732,V,3500 only !

I can't explain what happened ! but 02 Transponders locked to day

maybe because sun-outage is very close in this month ?!

inspired SaTom by post here 

here my best signal in Ecowas 2 (Horizontal polarity) for more than 24H

best signal between 03h30 to 19h00

here my best signal in Ecowas 1 (Vertical polarity) for more than 24H it ,Ecowas-1 has a strange behavior here !

best signal between 23h45 to 12h15

seems that all Ecowas-1 transponders behave with the same way in my position ,unfortunately I cant lock this transponder 12733,V,3500 best signal in early mornig 4.4dB but stil need 3.5dB

best signal between 23h15 to 10h30
