on my sky box (no numeric SNR, unfortunately), 11720H (MTV Live HD) does appear marginally higher on both signal and quality, compared to 11798H (Sky Living HD)
All right, let's do some real measurements. SNR of 6.1 dB vs 11.2 dB for 11798H and 11720H, respectively.

Edit: that's with the 90cm dish.

This is what I get. Doesn't look like norma imagel artefacts to me - what's going on there? o_O
And the name is strange as well... SNRNEWv...?

wow, thats a big difference, 6.1 is near the threshold, isn't it? i certainly have a much smaller difference between the two. those are measured on a 90cm dish?

Not very helpful but [background=rgb(247, 247, 247)]12207 power is up much higher here tonight. Usually just lockable now with about 10% extra power[/background]

Checking those transponders on Humax PVR (don't have Sky):
11720H: 90% Strength 90% Quality
11798H: 90% Strength 40% Quality (!)

It gets weirder...

Edit: It's like there was some sort of noise on that transponder. It looks like it's 8PSK but it's not. I don't get it. With the 1.8m dish, the signal is not better at all.

just an idea...isnt it possible that for whatever reason the output power was decreased on 1N, and thats why we're experiencing signal loss on the edges? and its not because these tp's were moved to 2F...?

SNRNEWv at 120207, it seems is the same program as Sky News, but I have no idea what this transmission is supposed to be with such a picture and no sound...

I was able to get this tp till yesterday. But I could not get it anymore with 170 cm dish in Istanbul.
Something happend on this tp.

In Iraklio/Crete 2 friends of mine have lock on 11798H:

Mabo 170x185cm at 7.6dB now.
Channel Master 3m at 9.8dB now.

Both use a Technotrend S2-1600 DVB-S2 card. The measurement is made with Crazyscan and EBS Pro. Both don't show any BER.
