My System: Triax 1.1m and Orbital 80cm Motorised Dishes. Various fixed Dishes. Eclectic selection of Digital and Analogue Receivers. Complex switching and distribution that SWMBO cannot fathom. Nor me.

My System: Covering 30W-105.5E range, two motors, C and Ku band. Various receivers/cards/cams/etc.

As on russian forums being rumoured, one of possible customers is GTSS - Due to dead/half working satellites at 80E/53E, they're in deficit of satellite capacity.

Two years ago I was talking to one of local billionaires assistant, they wanted to invest in IT/Hitech stuff. I suggested them to do own satellite, they've decided to do undersea cable...
