The Russian satellite "Express-AM6" will arrive in the position of 51 degrees East at 6 of March, and starts in orbit testings.
"AM6" will be move to the orbital slot of 53 degrees East after IOT and she starts to operate, approximately in first half of May.

I knew leaving that old lnb in place after the Turksat tests at 50E was a good idea :D
 
Russian satellite operator RSCC carry out another series of technical tests on the new telecommunication satellite Express AM6 at position 51 ° E. At this location should appear now.

After the technical tests will be moved Express AM6 early May to its target orbital position 53 ° E, which will take over operations for the satellite Express AM22. It moves to the position of 80 ° E, which after years RSCC restore service.

From the position 53 ° E will continue to provide Express AM6 coverage of European Russia, the Urals, Western Siberia, the Middle East, Europe and Africa.

I wonder how reception will be compared to Express AM 22?
 
11043H active right now. There also was carrier 11215V few minutes ago, but gone now.

11106 H half an hour ago, 11169 H now.
Height on Crazyscan RF level scale: 2 and 1 dB respectively, so not very strong.
Edit: 11169 H also 2 dB now.
 
11106 H and 11169 H

Interesting New activity in the 10.7Ghz to 10.95GHz part of the Ku band not used here before ,
I hope there is some new content on the European Beam.
 
11481 H now, started 1 dB, a couple of minutes later 2 dB, so there's a pattern, a careful switch-on of transponders!
Since the peaks are so strong at tempo, I think these are Russian beam, and there is little hope for reception here.
And the inclination that is 0.4° right now is also not to be ignored.
Almost 2 months left to get rid of that inclination!

Testing continuing now with 11481 V, same strength as yesterday.
 
Indeed 11482 H seems very strong signal now.
