My Satellite Setup
Several Receivers, Motorised CM 1.2m dish, Hybrid Titanium Smart Lnb with CM feedhorn, 80cm Triax with Stab HH 100 Motor, Golden Media GM202 Lnb and a Zone2 minidish, Dur-line Unicable II Lnb.
My Location
53°E - 45°W
Just wondering, is there anything KU band that can be received still in the uk from either 58°w or 61°w ?
 
58W Ku has the occasional feed, last few weeks I've spotted both Spanish for S America and Irish to the US, C band is quite busy and do-able on a 1.2m. 61W seems quiet these days, not even the data transponder to lock onto now although there are a couple of good peaks in the spectrum when scanning it.
 
How big is your (biggest) dish ?

If that was aimed at me, then 1.2m channel master is my biggest dish.

Thanks for info, good to know there is some activity over there.

I do check kos and lyngsat quite often for info of any transponders on these 2 sats, but they don't seem to change on there.

I spotted a post from a few weeks back about a feed on 58°w which was from yourself, which is what inspired this thread, as I figured there might be other active ku band transponders that are just not listed on the 2 mentioned sites.
