33.4°E Skynet 4C (incl.)

  • Seems that i am coming closer to a correct calibaration. Found this signal on 2252.488 MHz which could be Skynet 4C according my information. Readout is corect for 33°E for AZ. EL is far away because of the inclination of 14°.
    Can someone confirm?

    Found it in the end. Here's the 2252.49MHz beacon. I think that the 2227.500MHz beacon was there but I have a lot of local interference on that frequency.

    Skynet 4C (incl. 14°) has moved a bit during the last few weeks to about 33.85°E, exact slot to be confirmed.

    Apparently this was done to free the 33.4°E slot for ABS-7 (incl. 1.6°) that just arrived here.

    ABS-7 has both Ku- and Ka-band (C) payload, so probably ABS-7 will do military Ka-band services from here.
