We have had a request for a new reception map for the new Astra 2F transmissions in the 12500-12750MHz band.
At the moment the thread is closed as most channels are being dual illuminated on 2 frequencies via Astras 1N, 2F UK beam or indeed even 2A as well as the 2F Euro beam!
To avoid confusion and as we are really only interested in the ones on the 2F European beam, the thread will remain closed until some of the interim frequencies are turned off and we are left with a nice clear situation with some channels.
So everyone can take part we will use a free to air channel - the channel to be used will be decided as and when the interims start going off.
I'll set the map up over the weekend & start compiling the data once we open the thread.
So everyone who wants to take part we need some basic information
Your location to the nearest town
Your dish size
what sort of reception you are getting - so expats get monitoring
(eg 24 hour no problem / breakup from xx - zz hours / no reception at all.
So my report will be
Galashiels (SE Scotland)
60cm dish
no problems
using RT on 12610V & CCTV News on 12662H which I know Im getting off the 2F European beam
