[QUOTE="hexah, post: 815653, member: 333852"] It is strange that they have not improved the signal to Iceland. According to the footprint maps, both T1 and K1 are only 45dBW in the inhabited parts of Iceland. Astra 2D is 50-51dBW over the same region! RUV are broadcasting television and radio from Intelsat 10-02 at 47dBW and also radio from Thor 5 T1, yet not the more useful T2. Perhaps they can't afford the T2 carriage costs? Does anyone know why this is? It seems odd that the K1 beam does not have at least a 51dBW hot spot over Iceland. There are a lot of footprints out there with two main hot spots, or with an additional spot for the Canary Islands. [/QUOTE]
