ME beam is too far from my area,as such I don't have a signal for those transponders mentioned by you.That's why I was glad when I saw the signal on Vertical on the my spectrum.It is more a promise than a certainty that it will come in useful signal on Amos 7.For this reason,any report about the reception of Amos 7 is welcome.
Thanks anyway.

100cm dish reception.

When Amos-2 goes we will loose M1 & M2 + other fta that have moved to some of the Amos-3's very weak European Beams here in the East of England:-
11139 H 30000 & 11175 H 30000 to name 2 the rest can be seen above.

Having monitored the signals from the ME beam, I can say that there is a huge signal variation on both 11258V and 11342V, with both of them peaking before midnight and slowly disappearing until morning. During peak I receive 11258V @11.3db and 11342 @10.2db. Note that the T2-Home transponders on the common frequencies are at their lowest during ME beam peak time!
No other frequencies lock from the ME beam, another strange thing. I compared the ME signals with a friend's 3m dish and during peak he has 19db on 11258 and 13db during the day, so a 6db variation is enough to make the signals disappear on my 1.30.
I will try to make a full report during peaktime.

I combined the Amos-2 and -3 pdf's of the Frequencyplansatellites site.
And made a (very) provisional pdf for Amos-7, that may need corrections.
But maybe these come handy at this stage.

Note that Amos-2 has 0.5° inclination (signal variations!), and Asiasat 8 / Amos-7 is actually located at 3.85°W (± 0.05°).

They must realise the services Amos 3 European Beam have poor reception I would guess? Some have moved to Astra 4A at 5 East 11766H 27500.
The only Amos 7 beam for Europe on Flysat that is active is 12315H 15000. That isn't very special...
If we do loose the frequencies you mention 4West wont be very good at all for services FTA not in the UK

Here's a full scan I made now that the signal of the ME beam has began to appear. Note the very low signal on the Verticals of T2-Home due to co-interference from the ME beam. Also there are several bumps on the spectrum with no lock.

A lot of 5W Fransat transponders are penetrated in this scan - 11054V, 11096V... / 29950 SR.

Of course, 1.30 is still way too small to separate completely signals of 1 degree especially when they are so strong!

I picked up some test carriers this morning from Amos-7 it looks like they are going to lease some transponders to France,
No signals now.

It's evening and ME signals are strong again.
This time there is also 10972 V 30000, 9.2db
