Amos 5 @17E ?

[Vipersan]

Have there been serious changes on this bird ..
I periodically check all the C band birds on my arc ..and currently can't lock anything at this location ?
So I'm suspecting either a problem with my setup ..or major changes to channels/transponders ..or power output.
Anyone manage to lock anything (UK) ..
any info appreciated ..before I start tweaking ?
Sure ..there are traces of life ..but nothing getting above maybe 2.5 > 3db

...Tell a lie ..
Currently blind scanning ..and found and locked a transponder 3823R 4850 ..carrying ..errr
Nothing ..
Locked into the F15 OK ..but no sound or video ..and not encrypted ..
Logged as 'Site 1'
???
I rarely blind scan on Amos 5 ..as the F15 doesn't like or respond well to blind scans of this bird.

no signal for me on 3790 R either --
but the blank transponder that V.S. was getting in post 2 comes up for me on a blind scan - showing 2 channels -- but there is nothing to see.

 

[pride21]

hi nelson business tv back on 3828R at 60% quality if you want to try.

 

[Kveys]

New quite strong channel GTV / CFTV religious 3625L 1000.

Tnx Flysat!

 

[pride21]

nice one Kveys have to put c-band back on and give it a try.

 

[nelson_b]

very good signal here for me ---

 

[Kveys]

Are You UK guys tried these other newones? 3620L 2754 Asonga television and 3827R 1250 Liberation Tv. Flysat says these are there. Maybe and only maybe little signal from 3620L here but totally nothing from 3827. Some other changes also 17E but never saw anything from upper frequencies though Lasseparabol get many "quite near" (Sweden). Upper C-band freqs. I mean.

Amos 5 is having technical problems

Did a scan and there was not much txp I received.
Only 2 L-cirk & 6 R-cirk txp i received.
Seems like the satellite become weaker.

May be interesting when Amos 4 starts sending from 65 East, but not in the C-band.
