W6 is the former W3, which used to operate at 7E. She moved to 21.5E in late 2004 when replaced by W3A.
With twenty-eight simultaneously active transponders, W6 provides a widebeam coverage of Europe, North Africa, the Middle East and Central Asia, and a steerable coverage centred over North West Africa, and the Middle East.
Like the W2 satellite, ten channels can be individually configured for operation via either of the two coverages. The remaining channels are connected to the widebeam coverage
