I have attached a couple of pictures below for two frequencies locked today from the West African beam of Badr-5 at 26.0E.

The strongest of them was 12303 H, SR27500, permanantly locked with loads of margin.
12284 V, SR27500 is also permanantly locked with plenty of margin to maintain a lock

Location: Southern UK
Weather: Cloud free sky

No issues here with those two frequencies on the 1.8m

12.284 V has gotten weaker but ... still doable at my site.
