    Eutelsat Hot Bird 13F & Eutelsat Hot Bird 13G

    Both with 80 Ku band transponders @13°E to deliver improved performances over the European and Middle-Eastern footprint and maybe North Africa ?!, reinforced by a powerful European Superbeam

    Hotbird-13F was tested @ 0.5°E ...moving to the east ?

    According to this web site :

    Eutelsat's Hot Bird 13F and Hot Bird 13G satellites will begin commercial service at 13° East in two phases. The first will take place at the end of May 2023 , and the second is expected at the end of July 2023 .

    :3: If the speed=constant you can still wait 8 days for the destination of 13F.

    If you don't specify the antenna size and the approximate location, posting is useless if it's about signal acquisition.

    "Auto" should never be in the settings.

    It's a pity that they all use a calculation algorithm, none of them track real telemetry and beacon

    @Andreasgrdx:

    Wenn man davon ausgeht, dass die TLE-Daten unabhängig davon ob sie errechnet oder die reellen sind, exakt sind:

    6,85°E 11.08.2023 _ 23 : 31 : 59,86

    8,06°E 14.08.2023 _ 0 1: 53 : 42,54

    ergibt sich eine Verschiebung von 1° in 61,45 Stunden bzw. 0,39°/24h.

    Heute, 15.08.2023 würde dies 8,58°E ergeben 10:00:00 UTC (12:00:00 mitteleuropäischer Sommerzeit) und die theoretische Ankunftszeit auf 13°E wäre der 26.08.2023.

    Assuming that the TLE data are exact regardless of whether they are calculated or real:

    6.85°E 2023-08-11 _ 23 : 31 : 59.86

    8.06°E 2023-08-14 _ 01 : 53 : 42.54

    there is a shift of 1° in 61.45 hours or 0.39°/24h.

    Today, 08/15/2023 this would result in 8.58°E 10:00:00 UTC (12:00:00 Central European Summer Time) and the theoretical arrival time at 13°E would be 08/26/2023.

    If you don't specify the antenna size and the approximate location, posting is useless if it's about signal acquisition.

    "Auto" should never be in the settings.

    120 Laminas (Ku)

    100 (Ku, 7°E/1.9°E/1°W), 85 (Ku, 13°E/16°E/19.2°E)

    I think there is a miscalculation, but the method should be OK.
    With the ancient software Gorbtrack, 13°E would be reached around noon on the 23rd.
    But sometimes, the drift is slowed down in a few steps, resulting in a bit later arrival.

    :59:

    Nun, die letzte Differenz vom 14.8. (8.06°) zum 16.8. (9.29°) der TLE-Daten ergibt eine Verschiebung von 0.627°/24H

    Well, the last difference from 14.8. (8.06°) on 16.8. (9.29°) of the TLE data gives a shift of 0.627°/24H

    If you don't specify the antenna size and the approximate location, posting is useless if it's about signal acquisition.
