Hi,

Not a sniff of anything here, I guess I'm too far east. Let's hope they test the K2 beam shortly, which should be easy for me, judging by the footprint.

I will do, but having checked which direction the sun set today I can confirm I might be too far West. My excuse is my left-handedness.:-rofl2

No!

Just the 1.1m - not tried it on the 80cm recently.


It continues to blow my front end off right now (No smut involved).

According to Telenor, Visjon Norge will be in the clear on Thor 6 K1 beam 10872 V 24500 7/8. They don't say when, but it must be soon.

Thor 5 position is given as 0.75 degrees West.

Thor 6 position is given as 0.85° West.

Intelsat 10-02 position is given as 1.0° West .

The dual illumination period is given as three months, which will give enough time for people in fringe areas to work out what to do.
