51.5E Belintersat 1

Quick lash up of a Channel Master 90cm on 11290H = 13.8db stable lock. Scans in fine on all receivers. Primo showing 98% & Openbox V8S 71%. Sim lorry racing still on :P

Same here with the break up on 11.290H.
Flysat reports the SR as 44900, adjusted to the receiver to that, bingo, rock solid picture.

Agree with Nelson some decent rock music on...
 
11290 breaking up again in the rain here, Changing to 44900, 44990 or 45000 made no difference :)

Signal quality is down a little this morn here ... from 1.2 c.m. but still over 14 db on the F15 ... (well over lock) tinkering with s.r. and frequency has made no difference for me on this box either - Still no audio / video .. never had this kind of an issue on the F15 before ??

Still smooth as you like on the Octagon + optima .... same dish and l.n.b.

Just a thought.. While tweaking the dish to make 11290 sit on the 12.5db bubble, I noticed anything below that caused the BER begin to rise, and of course cause breakup on most receivers. So if receivers are requiring a totally error free signal, could that mean it's the FEC that's, erm, fecked? :confused
 
Is there a way of getting this sat and TurkmenAlem on the same dish (without a motor)? I did try and surprisingly got 51.5eand 53e though the same lnb pointing at 52e, however, after connecting it with my other dish driven by a motor through a 1.1 switch, I lost 51.5 but kept 53e.
 
Peak the dish on 51.5e, you'll easily pull in 52e at the same time.
 
The little Technisat DigiDish 45 gets 51.5°E (11350H only), all of 52.0°E, and 53.0°E (12594V only).

Did that and got it working, thanks.

The main one is 51.5e/52e/53e and the the one on the left is 60e.

Something more exotic from this satellite ... the African beam.
Only one frequency lockable at the moment but the rest is on the verge... just need some nicer weather and possibly the mechanical polarotor (skew adjustment).

Despite some additional efforts and better weather still only one lock possible. But from the rest of the screenshots one can conclude the success is really not that far away at all.

According your attached scans, you can lock one more, not only 11090 V: 11010 H 28775 3/4 DVB-S2 QPSK (4.3dB over LM in your scan).
This one is the strongest "no locked" signal at my place too (2.8dB ).
 
Not the case, unfortunately. I tried with the Octagon receiver, with EBSPro, with CrazyScan, with SmartDVB, with DVBDream .... only IQMonitor "delivered" this lock.
 
I keep trying but no further locks, unfortunately. I should be happy getting 11.090 V though, the modulation is luckily QPSK with 3/5.

More is not possible from my location.
