Amos 7 (was Asiasat 8) 4W

[Archive-8]

My dish is well out, bodged a signal out of it at the moment.

Will go and tweek it properly in the next few days.

But the general signal levels seem very low, compared to @william-1 last screen shot.

The dr hd is showing 6.0db on 10722

TVH after the change I can only receive it when I tune my antenna to 3W and there it comes with 9.5db only. Looks like it gets lots of interference from 5W, I wonder why the resorted to such a shitty frequency plan...
ZIK had the same problem as well.
11258V is absent on me today, while 11342 continues as is. Was there any change?

11630v left Knesset Channel
left
11636v left TBN
11258v left yes

 

[popovp]

11258V, 11635V, 11647V, 11658V back again

The 5 west Data Stream on 11591 H DVB-S2/8PSK 30000 3/4 wipes out Amos-3 transmission TVH on 11590 H DVB-S/MPEG-2 3700 3/4 in my location as I can get 5 west on a region-1 45cm mini dish here,

I agree with some of the previous comments this is a poor selection for a frequency sharing plan between 4 west & 5 west,
11633 H 30000 MXF feed from 5 west is 95% signal quality maybe they will put TVH here next

Looking at this link again in post #111 shows that most of the frequencies used by Amos-2 can be duplicated by Amos-3,
Frequencies 10722H,10759H & 10805H do not exhibit the fade that they used to maybe they have moved to Amos-3?
I used to loose these transmissions when it rained it is raining here now & the signals are rock steady.

 

[william-1]

Amos-2 10842 H 30000 has gone here now but the channels are duplicated on Amos-7 12315 H 15000 although the signals are low on 10722 H 27500 & 12315 H 15000 the picture is OK with no signs of breaking up during a heavy rain storm here.



Signals received here during a rain storm.

10860h got 8.2db with 4.5m

 

[pontiend]

I only get one transponder at 4 West just now.
11567H 14998 8PSK 2/3.
However just for fun I did a Crazyscan of 4 West and came up with this.I don't know if it belongs there.

[VodzigorLans]

Yeah, i can see it too so it is Europe beam of whatever sat it is...

 

[william-1]

I am beginning to think that only 2 transponders remain on Amos 2 10841 H 30000 & 11507 H 15000 as these were not picked up this morning when Amos-2 was off the arc this morning but have returned now Amos 2 is back on the arc.

Can someone please check the TLE data to confirm this.

TVH has left Amos-2 & moved to Amos-3 11590 H 3700 no signals here now on what is probably a Central European Beam & not a Wide European Beam as some map suggests,

Above is the real Amos-3 European Beam.

I don't think 11590 H moved on Amos 3 because it's too big difference of signal during a day/night, even by 3 dB,even if would be on the CEE beam,and ironically, just on the area where should be the strongest,namely DTH signal.In two hours the signal has dropped 0.7 dB.So Amos has a serious problem...

After a bit of fiddling with the longitude I get these transponders now.

AMOS 2 This morning 09:45 GMT

LOCAL TIME:

Signals down again on 10842 H 30000 & 10908 H 15000 all other transponders OK re post #151 so in my opinion it looks like these are the only transponder left on Amos-2 that I can receive here.

This ones are at CEE beam for sure, first ones unlocked for me only seen through blindscan2 no locked option...
