Is this transponder still active? i was reeving it 2 hours ago, but not now.

 

[Llew]

Seems to come and go. Checked earlier today, no joy then.

 

[ta6ish]

Signal was appearing and disappearing , wonder if they switched on Eutelsat W2A.

 

[strs65]

I don't see here any significant change on signal level...

 

[Llew]

BEN TV on now, with the other channels.

 

[ta6ish]

Yes, now im receiving it again, very strong signal 12 db :-righton. Don't know what happened last night.

 

[strs65]

I don't see here any significant change on signal level...

Well, I think I have to take this back! From 13.8dB yesterday, it gradually climbed to 19.7dB early in the morning!

 

[ta6ish]

It happened again, no signal at night, as evening falls the signal starts decreasing and disappears completely at night, all other frequencies are fine. any idea?

 

[strs65]

From 19.7dB in the morning, down to 13.4dB now! Wow, a difference of 6.3dB!

 

[ta6ish]

Yes, it will keep decreasing more. But what would be the cause of this decrement...operator or low symbol rate

 

[strs65]

No idea...

Btw, at 13.8dB now.

 

[ta6ish]

Same channels are now on AB3
