Some time back I substituted a Ku lnb for the SL3 to get rough positioning for 42 East ..and stored this position in the Gbox ..
So I'm fairly sure the SL3 is now pointing at 42 East ...but maybe be clipping the Troublesome Tree and as a result may not be getting maximum signal..
That said I'm 99% sure this peak which appears in a scan of Ka band A in both H and V .....is therefore a circular polarised Carrier ...
No way of course I can tell if RHCP or LHCP ...
Nonetheless I'm thinking this is from Turksat 4A (18600 approx.)
Turksat 4A also has a transponder in Ka band B but no sign of anything in this higher band as yet..
Time will tell I guess ..
As to possible signal levels ..
Having looked at the footprint ...of 4A in Ka I believe it _does_ extend to reach the UK albeit fringe..
