No signal on that one either

let hope good lack for first launch in 2013

 

[Piltdownpaul]

Watching it now.

 

[Piltdownpaul]

Looks cloudy.

 

[Analoguesat]

Another fabulous liftoff

Clear skies downrange, so the booster jettison was clearly visible .

 

[Piltdownpaul]

Nice work,some clever people doing a great job.

Looks like this satellite is now geostationary at 46.2E

Let's wait for some feeds now! Coverage looks decent for Europe from most beams...

Azerbaijan’s First Satellite Reaches Final Orbital Position, Enters Testing Phase.

For the next two weeks, Azerspace/Africasat-1a will move into the payload IOT testing phase, and then handed over to Azercosmos, which will operate the spacecraft from its control center in Baku.

The first test carrier from Azerspace 46E is active right now (since 13:20 GMT) on 11172H

 

[Analoguesat]

Lots of carriers have now been reported active.

Hey Azerspace how about putting a proper signal on air so we can all have a look!

That was mostly my reports posted on flysat. I didn't uploaded other spectrum pictures here cause there wasn't interest to this sat. If it is interesting, I will upload in this thread too.
The last test carrier was on the spectrum about 30 minutes ago. So they still test Azerspace, sometimes in Ku band and sometimes in C band. C-band transponders have been tested in both linear and circular polarity.
Satellists in Paris, France confirmed (posted on satelliweb forum) weak signal on the spectrum, maybe in UK you have a chance to have some small or normal peak too

 

[Analoguesat]

Im hoping they put a "proper" signal on air soon - Ive already slewed my 36E dish round to 45E in preparation

 

[tempo]

Well, they switched to C band now, right now I have a test carrier on 3804H (or V, still confused with my C band LNB polarization directions).

P.S. Peaks on 3530 are false, don't pay attention.

Ah, a spot of seasonal hedge-laying!

 

[Analoguesat]

Kicked the tyre round & stuck a couple of pieces of wood under the back of the tyre to lower the elevation

Now 4184H is active.

Another night test results:
4184 in Circular,
4124 in Circular,
4008 in Circular,
3972 in Circular,
3924 in Circular.

Early morning tests:
3724V,
3772V.

P.S. 3772V active again right now.
