Orbit have been having trouble on 8'w lately but for the last 2 weeks 10.972h 27500 3/4 has gone weak it use to just need a 45cm dish like 11.009h but 10.972h is very weak even on a 1M dish now here in wales
 
OK here just outside Stoke, booming in on my Gregorian 90cm.
90% signal and 72% quality on my TM1500 super
 
11009 H is 80% signal but 10972 H is only 66% on my TM in SE Kent
Below 66% i lose the signal
 
OK here on my 80cm dish and it isn't spot on the arc at the moment, I'll take a signal reading tomorrow for you if you want.
 
ok cheers,

The transponders have been up and down on 8'w maybe it is a fault with the satellite

On my TM1000 in Kent:-
84% on 11009H
69% on 10972H, which is about what I'm getting on 7W, so relatively weak right now.
Edit:
Oh its jumping about quite a lot, between 66% and 70%.
 
Huge different for me I used to watch Marhaba on that transponder for better lock for Keith Olberman and its down atleast half its signal :confused:
 
Also of Note Al-Huda on 8w on 12566 V is having signal brake up for the satellite its being relayed off.
 
Looks reasonably solid here.

I heard eutelsat are having problems, today i got the conduit laid today for my dishes and hooked up my 1.8m prodelin and now use orbit on eurobird 2 25.5e as there was only 2 orbit transponders left on 8'w
 
Any problems with orbit or you want to tell them about the lack of channels at Atlantic bird 2 8'W please email them at direct@orbit.net also remember to include your full details including your decoder A/N number
 
Much better signal today :)
 
Also since orbit removed a few channels a few weeks back they are no longer broadcasting a EPG on the philips xd300 it just says searching
