36.1°E Express AMU-1 <SSA>

    • Official Post

    As far as I can see, there does not exist a toppic for this position on this beam... So I give here a GO! :26.

    PS: I know, that for all "more western guys", it´s no problem to show their complete locks also from one position - reports already in this toppic: 35.9°E. :73:

    ...but for me it´s more difficult - and I can´t get any locks - but it´s good enaugh (I think) for give a try in this (linear) frequency range (0.2° more to the east in azimuth)... I even can see parameter from two tp in DVB-S (showing wrong FEC in my scan) ...

    PS2: 12245 H is from Eutelsat 36B according LyngSat.

  • Just my first scan in 2023 from this postion and SSA beam. All unlocked (of course from my place and my used setup).

    Best DVB-S2/8PSK signal is about 3.2dB under LM: 12092 H 27500 2/3

    DVB-S signal is visible: 12303 V 27500 3/4

    Probably changed to DVB-S2 now:

    12226 V 27500 2/3 DVB-S2 8PSK

  • Midnight scans on SSA and Africa beams from my QTH

    One scan for 36B and one for 36C both polarization.

    Bad situation on S2 Freqs. on 36C comparing my old scans in 2018, and lower signal now.

    I don't know if signal decresed since 2018 but surely my KU setup needs some works hoping to forward real gain of my dish
