23,5E 2x 16APSK

[BlindFaith]

Both Belgium public networks een and Canvas are currently transmitted via two 16APSK carriers.

een -> 11661V, 2333, 16APSK, 5/6
Canvas -> 11664V, 2333, 16APSK, 5/6

..a good signal is required (16APSK, 5/6) ;)

Can the current DVB-S2 receivers on the market pick up these 16 APSK signals? Or will we see a gradual increase in these signals meaning a new range of receivers is required in the near future?

Only 11661V ATM, too many continuity errors in TSReader for network info. Gibby 1.25, TBS5925.

Nothing here I need a bigger dish.

@Llew try to narrow the search width. Both carriers are closely spaced together.

@RB 16APSK is only used for feeds. Apparently DSNGs have upgraded their gear. I've just performed a blind scan at 23,5E and found 5X 16APSK

Still trying for 11664V BF, a little too weak. Guess I struck lucky with 11661V, that's hard to lock now.
Will persevere.

ATM 11661V is quite strong.

 

[Llew]

Good here now. A feed of Studio Brussel, not live - on a loop.

 

[Llew]

Sorry, make that 11658V.

 

[BlindFaith]

New carrier, same parameters. Comes slightly stronger - 14,4dB

Could be a burn-in test of their new 16APSK gear by Flemish public broadcaster VRT

11664V back, now with a test card
