52E (TurkmenAlem/MonacoSat)

Maybe someone from ME/NA can tell us, from here I can't say exactly if are on west beam or east beam, the original footprint of both cover my area very strong.
Like the last time, for 11420 V I must go to something like 52.1°E, it's the only one who acts like that. The 10720 is the weakest, right now is dropped on 3.6-3.7dB

It seems that all Iranian transponders are no longer active at 52.0E.
All Iranian services in the upper band have ceased operations; only Russian and Afghan multiplexes remain.
Here's what I found in my area: no transponders.
Iran has been badly shaken by the bombings, perhaps even the TV studios(?).
The signal has returned at 52.0E after a 10-day hiatus in my zone. Not only did I pick it up quickly, but I’ve noticed that its strength has remained the same, if not slightly better. And that’s with a 1.10m dish.
The weakest mux is 10720 V, 27500, 3/4, which, by the way, isn’t reported on either Lyngsat or FlySat. Sorry, the weakest signal is on 11420 H, 27500, 3/4, just like before.

Here in NL, 52E is stronger than ever on a Digidish 45.
10762H/V through 11221V are all about 10 dB, including Uzbek 10926H that I never locked before on this little dish.
11382H and 11420H are about 6 dB.
12265V and 12303V are 12.5 dB as usual.
It's like there are more than East, West and MENA beam at play, or they are tweaking transponder output power.
 
Just as before, 11,420 V, 27,500, 3/4 has the weakest signal in my area (the northwestern part of the country), yet it can still be received with a 1.50 m antenna under good weather conditions.

But I should mention one positive aspect of this mux: it uses DVB-S modulation. If it were in 8PSK, I’m not sure if it would be possible to lock it(?).
