12598 V 18000 3/4 DVB-S2 16APSK is "on" today.

Weak and unlocked signal, I dont´t think about PLS here. Of course not S2X (also tested with TBS 6522). Need +3.1.dB for a lock..

Someone elso give a try?

(Probably a UHD feed for El Clásico today evening?)

Best Regards

Hi! Got 27 transponders locked today from 26*E position. Not sure which transponder belongs to which Badr, as information on KoS and Lyngsat sometimes is controversial, but there are some very strong and quite weak transponders. Attaching screenshots of the weakest ones.

Rima,
which dish Is used

 

[RimaNTSS]

which dish Is used

As it is mentioned in screenshot #1 in my previous post, it is 4.6m..... with smaller dish something like that is not possible.

Rima,

that 4.6 Is absolute DX beast
can you try to catch 25.5 E Eutelsat 25B/Es'hail 1

 

[RimaNTSS]

can you try to catch Eis 25.5 E

I think I've tried once but got nothing. But, you never know.... will try another time. And, besides, it is not too far from 26*E, just a fraction of degree.

For 24 hours monitored signal levels from 10791V @badr7 which I first locked yesterday. From data built this graph. I think those downs can only be fixed by auto-tracking system.

Nice catch - I am seeing absolutely nothing from this frequency here.

4,6m dish? Does it exist???
Could you attach a picture of the dish?

Wohhhh!!!!

As I have dish parked @ 26*E, did a full scan, resulting in locking couple of transponders from Badr5. Namely 12265H (all channels are coded) and 12284V (FTA). According to LyngSat this is West-Africa beam.

 

[RimaNTSS]

Discovered 12245V transponder (Qatar). Nice picture, as video-bitrate is quite high

 

[ocean04]

Badr7 NWA 11010V 27500 is currently still FEC 1/2 (DVBS2 QPSK)
This is FEC is easy, okay here in Finland even with 110cm

 

[RimaNTSS]

I did not touch antenna for a month or so, maybe it needs some tuning. Signal on this TP is very weak at my place, but, as you say, because of 1/2 picture does not break apart.

Here in North/East Bulgaria with 1.2m

@popovp when you screenshot or photo your screen make sure all the readings about signal also included in the picture. Without them it is just a nice picture
