That is the strongest transponder there - I can get it using even 60cm offset dish. Some guys in russia manage to receive it using bare LNB...

I thought so , because its the only signal on that sat that gives me picture .
Even at 5º W Atlantic Bird , i don't have result .
 
try to remove the cone you may get even better signal...looking at it i´m sure the cone makes some phisical shadowing on the reception
 
The DE plate is in the neck of the TRF , I can't place it in the body .
I'm gonna make a TRF without the outher scalaring .
This morning I found signal and picture at 5º W
TP 4158 R en 4163 L both sign. 97 qual. 69 total 15 chann.
