What size dish are you using?

He's in Italy & can get this with a 100 to 150cm dish.

So far from the reports received the 5B footprint is very tight on the West side towards the UK.

I managed to lock 12402 and 12480 today after straightening out and realigning my 90cm Fibo. 11954 and 11973 are reading 9dB but getting no lock...

Pro TV International on 11934 V DVB-S2/8PSK MPEG-4 30000 2/3 on new High Power beam:(

TM5302HD just about locking onto this transmission now other receivers not so good,
Watch able on TM5302Hd with breaks in transmission I think the 100cm is just a bit too small for this transmission now looks like a 120cm needed if you want to watch these transmissions.

Or go to 13 east 11200 V 27500 for 45 to 60 cm dish.

Kazakh TV that was on Astra 5B = no signal now 11758 H DVB-S/MPEG-2 DVB-S/MPEG-4 27500 3/4 the only channel that I have lost is Perviy Muzykalnyi Telekanal so i will have to make do with what I have :)

There is an alternative for Kazakh TV@ 36 east 12511 H DVB-S/MPEG-2 4340 1/2 for 90cm dish here.

But alas no alternative for Perviy Muzykalnyi Telekanal :eek:

So unless things improve at sundown that will be the end of 31.5 east on 100cm dish here in the East of England thanks to the new tight footprint satellites.

Astra 1G has left 31.45° E, and will co-locatie with Intelsat 904 at 59.84° E.

Journey will take about a month as it looks now.

Nice to know where Astra 1G is going just outside my arc of 55 east to 60 west.

Looking at its footprint, it won't be available anywhere near western Europe at 60E...

Now that Astra 1G is on its way to 59.84° E, Astra 5B and 2B can come closer to each other. New COB's already:
31.52° E : Astra 5B (2014)
31.36° E : Astra 2B (2000)
