Will give this a go, LP. Though, I might just be out of luck there as I am only getting one TP on 61W, not two like most people here. So, 63W might well be behind the bushes.

I take it that is across all three of your dishes, not on just one, ahem, like me ;) Is it possible to "see" much more of the sky from our location? :confused
Yes, 63W to 75E on top of a hill just east of Brighton, it would be 75W if there was anything there pointing this way.

...........I might just be out of luck there as I am only getting one TP on 61W, not two like most people here.........

I notice CJ that 12642 H was secured ok......just to say that 12522 and 12642 are both normally locked at a decent dB but yesterday (as shown in the attachment of my prevoious post) the earlier scan of 12522 H shows a dB of only 5.7dB whereas an hour later scan gave a reading of some 11.4dB. The dB of 12642 H was near the same on both scans.

¿Possibly worth U having another shot at it?

Best of luck. :)

Best wishes.

No luck - I am not even getting 12642H now... had about 9.x dB earlier but getting no more than 5dB now and nothing on 12522H.

¿Weather or line of sight?

Scanned in both 61.5W transponders today. 12642 is back to yesterday's level on 9.5dB and 12522 is locked at 7dB, so scanned it in too!

Sadly, not a chance with 63W. Not a blip on the spectrum on the F15 (PC card is disconnected at the moment).

Have the two horizontal transponders gone? Can't see anything here even on the 1.8m but the vertical signal is still strong although unlocked.
