[QUOTE="moonbase, post: 1079288, member: 178786"] Today's scan result table and a channel screen grab are attached below. I was getting a lot of bleed over from 53.0 East when scanning 51.5 East and only managed to lock one frequency. From a UK location, this does not seem an easy satellite to achieve signal locks from in C-Band? Possibly further south and west may improve reception, any one close to Lands End with a nice size dish? The signal levels may have highs and lows dependent on the time of day? I might see if I can squeeze some more juice from it later on this evening. . [ATTACH type="full"]127140[/ATTACH] Update: The signal seems to be increasing as the afternoon progresses. I am now getting 6.0db (locked) for South TV and slightly higher reading for the other two frequencies that are below the level needed for a lock. Evening might be the best time to scan this satellite from a UK location? . [ATTACH type="full"]127150[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
