Unknown Ka-Band Satellites

    • Offizieller Beitrag

    Very close to 25°E , there is a strong spike (beacon ?) on 20310 , never seen it before (not inclined or aligned right now)


    I can't find the satellite

    I think you found a Ka-band downlink from Skynet 5B at 25.1°E. :73:


    UHF-Satcom said about the Skynet 5 series: "There may also be Ka band downlinks but this is yet to be confirmed."

    The others Skynet 5 series are at 17.8°W, 52.75°E and 95.2°E. Who knows, Ka activity there as well!

    each member/reader can check it, the signal is actually VERY strong.

    Nothing in KA Band (A, B, C, D) @ 17.8°W
    95.2°E, impossible from my QTH

    Hi,


    I´m not sure about satellite position... maybe 42°E (+/-)??? :37:


    Locked via CS blindscan (circular scan):

    21457 (L) 67000 DVB-S2 (GS)


    PS: First Ka-band test on CAS 120 and SMR 1224 EL. Later on another (higher) place.


    /edit: Also locked under EBS pro.

    Okay, tested in Ku-band now.


    I was wrong!


    /edit: 21457 (L) 67000 is from position 31.5°E, looks like Astra5B.


    I will start a new toppic later...
