SES admitted this was an important part of the design process when the new uk astra 2 sats were being commissioned.Eute 33C is a bit different as its an old satellite being reused. Eutelsat will be optimising the beam for its new slot. Obviously India does not figure in plans for this craft at this slotTo be honest I very much doubt the wishes of some small time  illegal server operators have any bearing on the planned operations of a multi million Euro international operation.</blockquote>
