DS reporting 11123 V 22000 2/3 8PSK active- channel 4hd. I am not getting anything on this tp

0.0 dB for that TP here. but maybe thats because it's an HD signal... my receiver is SD only... maybe it can't recognize HD feeds as a broadcast beam.

11123 V - Channel 4 positive report - Darmstadt, south of Frankfurt in Germany - positive report! Reading says 98% signal quality (unfortunately I do not have a dB level), 95cm dish on 28.2°E - no multi-feed!

It is a DVB-S2 transponder it seems if your receiver is SD only, it will probably be only able to handle DVB-S demodulation and thus can't detect DVB-S2 transponders. So, yes, it's probably because of your receiver!

@welshman234

This can't be a spot beam, can it?

Can't hear any squealing from expats yet.

I'm in London this week so can't comment until I go back!

 

[hexah]

I bet the signal outside of the UK will improve as was the case when Astra 3B took over at 23.5e, the signal in Spain was somewhat stonger and more stable.

It stands to reason.

No one believed me then either.

 

[Satellite74]

I just can't believe that they will let us watch their channels, and an increasing number of channels in the near future, with even stronger signal quality than before on 2D.

According to digitalfernsehen.de - a forum for German members - one enthusiast in Austria tries to catch the signal - he was able to get Astra 2A, 2B and Eurobird with his dish, he did not get 2D. He does not get this signal either. If it was a pan-beam then he would surely be able to catch it.

Certainly a powerful signal here in Blighty -

ok i live in TENERIFE ,the ONLY signals we get at 28 in LOW BAND is EUROBIRD we dont ever get anything else from 2d , so on my spec.a i get small peaks MINUS 22K for EUROBIRD and good signal PLUS 22K FOR ASTRA 2A2B SOUTH BEAM......


NOW just been to roof

and got MASSIVE signals in low band - def new def 1N

 

[sonnetpete]

Cracking signal here in Northern France (better than the other T/P's) Using the TD88 with a 'slim fit' LNB.

 

[Captain Jack]

Good news! I can finally emigrate!

 

[Dan Dan]

sorry mate uk no longer in EU so we are all coming back,as they push the millions of brits back thru the tunnel,and throw away the key

11126 H 22000 is also active with a much lower signal.

Is this the first occurrence of frequency sharing at 28.2/5e?

 

[welshman234]

Hmm I am having no luck getting this on a Sky Hd box .. I still get channel 4 hd but the the signal quality strongly suggest to me that it is EB1. Perhaps sky hd boxes will need a software update or whatever. It seems that the signal from EB1 is being broadcast in paralell with the new one off of 1n

 

[remlap]

Its 8PSK you can't tune 8PSK on SKY HD boxes manually.

11126V 22000 2/3 8PSK DVB-S2 perfect Signal on my Multytenne in the Eastern part of the Netherlands. As strong as Astra 1 at the moment !!
