Confusion: Eurobird-2/BADR-2

**URPradhan** · 19-01-2007

Friends

I'm totally confused about Eurobird-2 (BADR-2).
The data for the above is different * Lyngsat, Eutelsat, Arabsat

1. Lyngsat: 25.8 E (http://www.lyngsat.com/eb2.html)
2. Eutelsat: 25.5 E (http://www.eutelsat.com/satellites/255e_eb2.html)
3. Arabsat: 26 E (http://www.arabsat.com/default%5Cfle...east%5C2D.aspx)

So, who is right ?

And most important, HOW THEY CAN SHOW DIFFERENT DATA FOR THE SAME SATELLITE ?

What ur trying to say !!! I did not get any thing frm ur above stmt

My confusion is how come the same satellite (Eurobird 2) can be in 3 different positions, as Eurobird2 and BADR2 are the same satellite. So which data is correct ? These websites are not updating their DB and creating confusion here

Eutelsat say its at 25.5E. Thats good enough for me

I had noticed it but,but I was thinking of the footprints.The only way to track this sat is by trial and error to get the real looking angle.
