Eutelsat 10A have been left to 10°E after ending to all frequncy's in C and Ku bands switching to Eutelsat 10B

Eutelsat 10A now moving to West

Possibility to Eutelsat give to Eutelsat 10A at 33°E (and renaming to in Eutelsat 33G)

However the Eutelsat 10A is still at 10°E... it hasn't started any movement yet.

But now 10A really started moving, already with 3.2°W/day, could well be end-of-live.

let see final location

 

[Marcus_21]

I confirm, it's moving west. Only the primary telemetry signal is active, in circular polarity (10950,20 LHCP).

I just checked and I notice that the TLEs are no longer correct, it is now at almost 7°W.
It appears that a new maneuver has been carried out to further raise the orbit.
I suspect it's going into graveyard orbit.
