96.5E Express-103

Express-103 @ 96.5° E

I realize that reception reports beyond, let's say, 72.0E on a Western European forum would not interest too many enthusiasts, but I delude myself that theoretically, there are enough who would like to know what is going on beyond their horizon.
I discovered a mux(3837 R,2700) at this position in C-band, which has an HCI stream(Human-computer interaction).
Is there a dedicated application for this type of transmission? With what can we capitalize on such a stream?
Thanks

I recently visited the 96.5E position to see what signal and transponders I find in the Ku-band on Express-103 with a 1.50m antenna.

There are also active muxes in the upper band, but given the very weak signal, IQmonitor can only identify them.

Visiting 96.5E again at the end of the year-2024-with 150m antenna and tbs6983 card in my area:

On my recent visit to 96.5 E I found a spectrum with many muxes:

Probably only a few enthusiasts manage to position their antenna in this extreme satellite.

However, for soft DXers , I can say that it is some consolation that they cannot receive Express-103 because it does not broadcast TV or Radio programs.

I think that for hard DXers , it is still frustrating if they want to receive all the satellites in the arc.

Here is what they might find at 96.5E at the moment.
