Thaicom 2/5 @ 78,5 East

[Kveys]

2nd KCTV (3685H) still tc only.

3675H 12833 100% sure signal but just below locking.

 

[Kveys]

3675H (yes it is H not V) suddenly quite strong and it seems only data ch?

 

[Kveys]

My 2nd 78.5E Regional beam yippee

4017V 1800 Thai PBS Bangkok. Not watchable but locked anyway. Check out the regional footprint http://www.tracksat.com/footprints.asp?satelliteid=162&satellite=Thaicom+5

 

[Captain Jack]

A very nice catch!

 

[mar-val]

I have 3 TPs locked till now. K220.;)

 

[Kveys]

Good to hear you pick them up also. 3803V been regular here quite long time 4.5-5.5dB. Also blindscan sometimes "find" that 3713V 1480 but in practise never saw any real signal from it.

What is that 3675H 12833? Only data maybe?

 

[mar-val]

3675H 12833 is only empty carrier,null packets.

 

[Kveys]

only empty carrier

Allright Thanks! So maybe there will start something sometimes..? I hope Laos (new sat-country for me).

 

[Kveys]

@mar-val Blindscan founded/locked 3733V 1500. Very weak here but sure signal. Not listed on Lyngsat or Flysat, can you get anything from it?

 

[mar-val]

Kveys - 3732 V 1500 3/4 DVB-S2/8PSK AOL, looks like Apstar @76.5E. ;)

 

[Kveys]

Ok Thanks mar-val! I tried to be smart and turned antenna first to 76.5E and it not showed more signal. But this F3/5 shows sometimes "real" signal for datachannels etc and sometimes only that veery weak one or not signal at all.
So still very few regionals but long winter still...

 

[mar-val]

4017V is much stronger than last time...

 

[margusten]

Finally got 4017V 1800Thai PBS Bangkok too.
Now I can receive 2 Regional beam transponders from 78,5E.

And some others are just little bit under lock:

Horisontal (global beam) is stronger:




Antenna 2.4M Aerial.

 

[Kveys]

C´mon @margusten, You get real programme from 4017V and I must be satisfied to frooooozen part of pictures, Unfair

Congrats Margusten
