Just checked 11023 H again and now the signal is .6 dB down to 13.9 dB. No change in weather, clear blue sky. Could they still be 'finetuning' the beam?

Lyngsat is correct, it's FEC 2/3 (and Pilot set to "on" if needed)

Thanks. Tried again and did get a few brief spikes on the Strength and Quality meters on the Humax.
Strength spiked briefly (2-3 secs) to 80% and quality to 50%. Both are again down at 0% at seem stuck there.

A 1 dimensional 2F-guess ; ) For reception east of 11°E a dish >120cm is required (central Europe)

A rather naive question from me but would a signal coming from 1N have a different stream ID than something coming from 2F? If so, wouldnt this tell from where the signal is coming?

No, with a huge dish you could tell if you know the exact location of 2F. Beacon signals are used for identification but that would not reveal which transponder is active..

So far reported on 11023H we have increased signal in Netherlands and Scotland. Can others in these areas confirm this please?

Central England seems to be unchanged, and everywhere else is reporting lower signal to some degree.

Also, it will be interesting to see Trigger's report when it comes in.

I'm getting 85% on 11023H 23000 2/3 DVB S2 8PSK here in Barcelona.
Weird thing is, my Humax Freesat box won't let me scan it for channels or save the TP.
