My System: Sky UK. FTA analogue & digital satellite from 5 fixed dishes (5E/7E/9E/13E/16E /19E/23E/28E) Pace MSS100, Echostar IP3000VA, Technomate TM-1000D, Dreambox 7020S

Angry Hotbird 7 (lost)

A bit of history as sadly Hotbird 7 was lost in a launch accident in November 2002.

These are the footprints for the craft which I grabbed before the loss of the satellite. She was supposed to be going to 13E, and had a wide beam and two spot beams. As you can see from the widebeam map she was designed to transmit almost into India.

Just for good measure and as its not available anywhere else (as it was removed from the Eutelsat site long ago) here is the official data sheet for Hottie 7
