36E Express AMU1 / Eutelsat 36C

[hvdh]

If I knew I would tell you!
But with an estimated life until Q3 2017, I think there is not much more than becoming a backup, for Express-AT1 at 56°E for example.

 

[Captain Jack]

I was hoping it would trundle westwards, so we could see some circular action from this bird here...

Back up for GE-23 / Eute 172A at 172E?

Hey Feedsat, any life from the Russian beam at your end?

What about 56e? There were some reports of Wide beam being received in Isle of Wight on 1.5m.

Unnortunately, only QPSK mux can be locked from my QTH

Sorry for the off-topic question, but how do you get CrazyScan to show transponder details SR, FEC, mode Etc. on transponders that aren't locked? I can't get it to do that!

Scan results done with TBS6983 + CrazyScan 1.02.123

Had a look here today --- using 1.8 channel master offset - with inverto white C120 twin + channel master feed
with original dielectric plate ( weather conditions dry but with some cloud cover)
held a lock on 2 transponders ok an 1 borderline

12092 R 7.6 db locked
12130 R 8.0 db locked
12149 L 7.9 db occasional flash of lock

Nice catch! Wonder if I manage something from there....

@pride21 - any luck on your side?

@Vipersan - have you tried this new bird in circular Ku? The old bird was just out of reach for you on the 1.5m.

Ive realigned my 36E dish (the 80cm on the tyre up the top of the garden) It had moved quite significantly in the gales over the winter.

Ive now got virtually all the Eurasian beam channels back.

Dewain is still absent atm & 12521V 1428 5/6 (Almasar Satellite Channel - not listed on Flysat) is ultra marginal, barely locking on an overcast afternoon.

 

[Analoguesat]

New Russian mux on 11386H 28800 5/6 DVB-S2 8PSK (Sky Caucuses)

Ultra marginal on an 80cm dish here ( Ive jusyt got enough signal to scan the schannels)

The channels are shoehorned in - there are around 30 of them! Most if not all encrypted - Trophy Crypt according to Flysat.

 

[Captain Jack]

Interesting. Wonder if my still active CAM will open them. At least I think it's still active. The quality on 46e of these was awful.

 

[Captain Jack]

Strong signal on the 1.8m but my dusty Trophy Access CAM isn't opening them despite showing available balance. Maybe I need to update it...will leave it overnight and see what it does.

 

[Jamie A]

Some are fta. The NIT still has reference to 46°E...

 

[Captain Jack]

My eyes hurt.....

 

[MCelliotG]

I receive it with 13.5db, fairly well! However the whole transponder is a mess, most channels seem blank even though they are flagged with TrophyAccess encryption. Even the four FTA not only are unwatchable, they are named wrong!
