    My System: Sky UK. FTA analogue & digital satellite from 6 fixed dishes (5E/9E/10E/13E/16E/ 19E/23E/28E) Pace MSS100, Echostar IP3000VA, Technomate TM-1000D, Dreambox 7020S, GDS 7000HD

    Astra 1KR geostationary in test slot

    Shes parked up at 3.4E

    With any luck test signals should be on air soon.


    Edited to correct orbital slot

    My System: have a 2.40 m Amercian monster + truman Gold starsat + NeotionBox3000 + Mvision + DragonX
    dont you love the new bird's thrill ? testing and new signal
    i expect a stronget signls more than the rest of the fleet @19.2e as the coverage maps indicates a slightly larger foot print , the bad news as we all know that it will replace a boring bird ==> 1C is all analouge transmition and we know nothing about the other channels on the dead 1B !

    F*** shes putting out a strong signal. Getting 90% signals on my Sirius dish without having realigned if off 5E! (10744H / 10773H / 10788V / 10803H / 10818V)

    These appear to be off atm (10832H / 10847V)

    Believe me - you could get this one on a dustbin lid. I might try my BSB dish on it later!

    Confirmed - a zone 1 minidish will be plenty big enough for analogue or digital reception off 1KR - Im getting decent sparklie free pictures on a hand held Z1 dish

    Definitely a time when I wish I had installed a motor. I have never seen Analogue so exicted (on the board that is ).
    Give it another hour and I am sure he will have tried a dustbin lid [edit: we posted at the same time - see you have tried then, hehe]

    what do they actually show on the test transmissions - colour bars, a promo?
    Have Fun, Moo.

    You still not got yourself a 20mm LNB for it yet???

    Actually, I might have a go with my Porty dish and try to pick up wonky-are seeing how it's a powerful satellite...
