DSTV Africa FTA Channels
12283 H 27500 DVBS2/8PSK 2/3
12322 H 27500 DVBS2/8PSK 2/3

are these occasional feeds ,or new fta channels?

 

[dreamsat]

These are informational programs and they have been available for quite some time.

Some news transponders found for DSTV since last time (7 db), but Gotv transponders are now unlockable, I think they're not on the same beam anymore

 

[dreamsat]

Thank you, unfortunately nothing usable has been received yet.
The DSTV transponders are being interfered with by the more powerful circular Russian transponders.

 

[AtOM13]

Probably the last FTA Channel on DSTV/ GOTV Africa package.
C/N lock is approximately 4.5db

35.9°E Eutelsat 36D
Strange reception here on 2.2m... really Central Africa beam/SSA beam according frequency plan?
11727 V 27500 2/3 DVB-S2 8PSK, Eutelsat colorbar
FYI: 11727 V 29330 was lockable last year at my place from Central Africa beam until February 2026...

 

[dreamsat]

That's quite possible. I don't see much of it here.
Some time ago I was able to receive some transponder signals from the Africa beam. Recently, the Russian transponder signals have become very strong.

 

[AtOM13]

This frequency 11727 V 27500 is on Eutelsat 36D at 35.9°E, and Gotv / DSTV on Express AMU1 (Eutelsat 36C) at 36.1°E.
From here, there's 1 clic on Vbox between these 2 satellites

Thx @AtOM13
...but is it possible for you to get currently both 11727 V frequencies from Eutelsat 36D and Eutelsat 36C...?

No, just 11727 V on Eutelsat 36D, absolutely nothing on 36C for this frequency

Which circulair signals are the easiest to receive in West Europe?
I have two circulair lnb's, with at least one I can receive 12641 H, so lnb-configuration is setup correctly. Dish is 180cm Channelmaster.

12641H is on the Eurasian beam so an easy catch.

Yes, but that's not what I meant.
Which of the Russian signals are the easiest to lock/have the strongest signal?

 

[rodscha]

they are relayed on Turkey 42 East,on the "West" beam
for Russian holidaymakers in Turkey I suppose!
