53E (Express AM6)

[moonbase]

Streaming nicely from EBSPro with SNR of 2.8dB, lock is solid, no loss of signal.

11665H 10500 locked on my old TM at 3.5dB



9 channels logged on the frequency, although it takes a while to lock

Even at 1.5 dB, the image would probably run smoothly without loss, especially as beam #2 covers the western part of Europe relatively well for the FEC 1/2 with a sensitive tuner.

It's at a reasonable level but the spectrum shape is awful. At that level, I'd expect a decent SNR. I'm guessing that there's either something wrong with the TX or there's another signal close or on the same frequency.

CS gives all sorts of responses to the scan. It did show the right data rate once or twice.

Here's a feed from 29th May

1.8m PF dish.

Spectrum shape taken off Promax here in Central UK ... 1.2m CM, cheap pll Universal lnbf.
Strange one this - An auto scan on a GTCombo does not capture , but a manual rx input gives two identical found channel lists but on different frequencies to each other. The caption frequency of 11660 H is not occupied as such.
Nothing found on freq marker 11656 H.

And now Crazyscan is showing me freq 11660 H but a different SR. Central UK, 1.2m CM.

[stephan94]

what is currently transmitted between 11650 and 11670 is absolutely not compliant with the requirements for interference-free transmissions.

As you can see from the IQmonitor spectrum, the two frequencies with their different SRs are overloading each other, which is not correct.

The Openbox S3CI II sees both frequencies clearly, finds programs on 11664 but nothing on 11659.

 

[EnoSat]

Running DATA on 11659 H creates a collision situation where one transponder interferes with another.
Therefore, some receivers have a problem with transponder LOCK.
Setting PILOT-ON for 11665H and PILOT-OFF for 11659H helps partially on e2 box.

<transponder frequency="11659000" symbol_rate="9000000" polarization="0" fec_inner="1" system="1" modulation="1" pilot="0" rolloff="1"/>
<transponder frequency="11665000" symbol_rate="10500000" polarization="0" fec_inner="1" system="1" modulation="1" pilot="1" rolloff="2"/>

 

[Channel Hopper]

If it helps, coming in here loud and clear on an 85cm dish, 9 TV, 4 radio. GT Media shows 44% quality.

 

[EnoSat]

53E / 10978.60 V / SR-2000

Does anyone process this 4:2:2 video pid (308) ?

If the signal is strong, it displays DVB-S2/32APSK

If the signal is weak, it displays DVB-S/QPSK

Coming up on the GT Combo as DG Centre.

Looks like a football match.

 

[EnoSat]

Today they moved WATAN to 11655H

 

[satesco]

For those who want to catch the two trp (11654 H+11660 H) and fail, I advise them to try in the evening because the signal increases and they have chances to lock it. At least in my area, the signal has improved significantly.
I tried using the 1.10m dish, and both trp. were received with no problems, especially since the 1/2" FEC facilitates this.

 

[Analoguesat]

Ive got nothing herethis evening (2315 local)

 

[SatSearcher]

New SR & FEC from today on the Afghan package, 7000 3/5, coming in slightly stronger at around 3.8dB

 

[SatSearcher]

Ok, something funny going on here, 15 mins after posting, it's changed again to SR 5000 FEC 3/4

 

[SatSearcher]

Changed again! now 5600 1/2. Seems to be changing freq, SR & FEC roughly every 90 seconds! Very odd!

 

[SatSearcher]

I'm guessing that eventually they'll settle on which parameters they're going to use!

 

[SatSearcher]

Looks like it's settled on 11651H, 8000 3/5, not changed for over half an hour now.

 

[s-band]

Well spotted. Things were moving as I watched. The data is still there on 11660 together with a narrow signal on 11668.
There's one BISS channel
