Good morning, Solly

What are you using for tracking? Is it n2yo?

Also, is there a Beacon?

Maybe it has something to do with this:

The launch of Astra 2G will certainly be delayed by this ...

She's at 27.6E now (07.00 UTC) so it's nigh on time to ignore the tracking and await some action!

Not good news then for the Astra 2G launch as Baikonur & Sea Launch are on the banned list:
