I wonder if it is actually active still as I get no trace of it with my 1m dish. Is anyone else in Southern UK getting it ok ?

The params are apparently 12574 V, 4355, 3/4, DVB-S2 8PSK

The 4:3 feed of it on 39 East is fine with me however

It is HD 1280x720 but currently airing something that was 4:3 awfully stretched to 16:9.

Signals pretty good, actually getting better than I last looked at it due to rain dying down.

Don't know that that means martin.:)
For some reason the alien dose not want to know about that transponder.It is set to DVB-S2 8PSK,But it will not have it.
I can see it keeping me busy the rest of the day.

This seems a bit of a weird one. Nothing shows up on the VU+ after any form of search. Swapped onto the 1.2 motorised, scanned the T/P with the Dr.HD and still nothing. Just completed a blind scan and Etno has turned up at 12.2dB SNR. It does freeze occasionally and I'm wondering if the low symbol rate is making a difference.

The Alien does have pilot in the 8PSK scan menu.Default is Auto. tried on and off.nothing.Earlier I did get the channel names but no signal. No problem at all with the TM5402HD.


Most odd.Nothing on that transponder on the Alien2, 75% on the TM.

Got them on the Alien2 Five channels.I scanned DVB-S2 QPSK. Signal SNR 36 BER jumping about between 0 and 77.

We were in the middle off a thunder storm when I got them.

Hmm.....Lyngsat lists the T/P as 8PSK......will give it a try on the VU+ as QSPK

No joy here on the 1.1m but that's probably due to foliage, as Etno is in my Channel list so I must have had it at one time!

This is from DBE. Maybe it says QPSK because that is how I scanned it.

I do complicate things.Now that I have them scanned in.I can now scan them in 8PSK.On the Alien2 they are now 8PSK.
