Just checked again this morning, both signals still booming in here. Variance still approx 0.7 dB , 11919 H being the stronger. Also noticed that 12284 V had about a 2 second delay compared to 11919 H.

About 2dB max... nowhere near enough for a lock.

Badr-7 looks like a dead loss here in the UK for 100cm dishes :(
Same as Badr-5 & 6
Nilesat 201 & Eutelsat 7 West A Ku-band North West Africa

Computer designed feed-horn down-links are making long distance satellite reception impossible :eek:

Hopefully they will launch another satellite with a European beam before Badr-4 expires here @ 26 east in 2021 so nothing to worry about atm :)

Badr-6 is just about doable on a 1.8m dish - most transponders are coming in. On a good day, I get the east African beam as well.
