Nilesat 201 signal strength is very very poor in the UK kungu. The absolute minimum dish size is 2.4m and its quite possibly quite a bit bigger. This sort of dish size is just not practical for most people here in the UK

Sadly the former strongest transponders on 101 have been switched to 201 recently, think the 7W slot wont be here for long for us.

Wonder how long 102 will last.

Thankful for Eutelsat 7 West A

Hi everyone, I would be pleased to have your thoughts about reception in Surrey of MBC HD TP

Frequency: 12188 H
SR: 27.500 Ms/sec
FEC: 5/6
Modulation: DVBS2 – QPSK

and MBC MISR which is not in on-air yet but the TP is alive

Frequency: 11219 H
Polarization: Horizontal
FEC: 3/4
Symbol Rate: 27500

New setup from scratch, unfortunately haven't got dish big enough to test it myself. Thanks for your time and experience..

Both listed as being on Eutel 7 West A. Thats the most favourable satellite at 7W for the UK. Hopefully someone will be able to give you an idea for the London area soon.

Hello everyone,
i'm new and would like to present my reception for the AB7WA at 7,3°W

All "MENA" Transponders have a lock on my Dreambox 500 HD, but <11GHz they're not so strong like e.g. the Al Jazeera Sport Transponder

Here are some screenshots with SNR on 13:50 METZ; in the evening the transponders are 0,5-2dB stronger than now

12,322GHz 27500 V 5/6 DVB-S 9dB (evening 10,2d:cool:
izupelzl.jpg
12,188GHz 27500 H 5/6 DVB-S2 QPSK 8,8dB (evening 10,1d:cool:

12,265GHz 27500 H 2/3 DVB-S2 8PSK 9dB (evening 10,2d:cool:

and the difficult 10,727GHz 30000 H 5/6 DVB-S 7,5dB (evening 7,8d:cool:

I'm sorry, but i don't know to show otherwise my screenshots

Yes, probably 7.3W on Eutelsat 7 as it's slightly further west than the Nilesat transponders. Surprised to see a Nilesat 201 transponder scan in OK, 12034H is 201 according to both Lyngsat and Flysat but is a quite respectable 6.6dB yet all other 201 transponders are below lock although I can see them on the spectrum.
