60.0ºE Intelsat 904.

Probably my limit re: line of sight but pleased to have secured this, for me, new sat.

Only 2 x data transponders and with the Technomate 5402, tv transponder 3699 R 1666 flashing 3.6dB no lock!





Here 14m above sea level.......dish on 60.0ºE.

channels tv is quite strong today I am picking it up at 6.4db at the moment

6.6 db with TM-5402 HD M3 (with few pixels)

I am only picking Channel TV....with my 1.5 Dish. Signal strength is 8.16db....but nothing else, although the other channels are supposedly on the West Beam as well.

Had yesterday a data transponder


but a small kick east and finally managed to lock 'Channels TV'.....well pleased.


Certain that this is my easterly limit! :mad:

Well actually two other transponders (not data) were nearly close to lock ( 5db) but when I scanned they simply didn't come up.
