Nothing here. Not even a wobble signal. Suspect ME beam
Yes that confirms 10975 H is Central Asia beam.

Unlucky you, the footprint ends near the Estonia/Russia border.

But with nelson_b and several reports from Germany, seems that 1,8 m often is enough to lock this one outside the footprint.

The signal here with 100 cm peaks at about 2.5 dB, maybe if the FEC were 1/2 instead of 5/6 it would lock...
 
signal is a bit stronger here now the thick cloud has blown away,(below lock for the last day and a half)
6.3 - 6.7 db today, enough to make smooth viewing possible -- no freezes.

It's receivable even on 45E here(heavy rain now):

The new transponder 11134 H 10000 5/6 DVB-S2/QPSK appeared today. The interesting thing is, I have 11134 H 10000 more weak than 10975 H 28500 (6.0db vs 8.3db on 90cm dish), but Qwer from Germany has vice versa. Thus possible that European beam used this time. Please try to receive it in UK :).

Hmmm, getting nothing on my 85cm dish, although it SEEMS like it's trying to lock. Can't see anything on the 1.2m Fibo as that satellite is behind the trees.

Edit: getting an occasional lock on 11134H here but not long enough to scan the channels. Will monitor and see if a daily variation will allow me to pull something in.
 
46E 11134H 001.webp 11134H quite well here in Finland. 10975H no life at all. In fact that 11134H would be better if my dish/motor would be perfect but after winter storms and my interests on last months only C-band there will be quite job to put motor 100% again for 125 Gibby. But summer will come, wouldnt it (not look like here) :-crying
 
No problem at all getting 11134H 10000, quality is well over 50% on the F3. Nothing scanning in on it though.

Definitely not on Intelsat 12 at 45E as I had to manually move the dish round a bit from 45E to get it.

This is with the dish just roughly aligned, nothing fancy here, I just yanked the tyre round a bit!

(And yes I KNOW it says Intelsat 12 on the screen - that was just a quick tp add to see if I could get anything)

This is on a battered old 80cm dish.

Blind scanning isnt clever - you get 103 channels from 8 tp's on Intelsat 12 scan in!
 
Nothing again from that transponder. Not sure if theres a problem with my motor.
 
The tp went off about an hour ago*. Its very strong when its on.


* or my dish moved in the gale....!
 
11134 H 10000 switched off about two hours ago.
 
No change here. What receiver is this on? Anyone able to lock it on Enigma2 receiver? Is this even QPSK/8PSK?
 
I can't get anything from this at all, but suspect my 1m dish and being a bit further north than martin-f isn't helping :(
 
Showing 78%SQ here in Southern UK. No Services on there yet. Using a 1.2m Channel Master dish with Black Inverto LNB
