Plots of the beacons as it crossed the Clarke belt. Doppler at the time made frequencies seem a few kHz high.
The actual position was close to the predictions.

Here's another whist it was much closer at around 7100km. Much stronger, possibly receivable on a LNB only (no dish). Note: scales changed from previous plots.

Hispasat 30W-6 should be at the 26.0°W in-orbit test location now.

Celestrak TLE epoch is 16/3 14:01 so a couple of days old and puts it at 30W. The beacons peak a bit to the east of 27.5W so it is probably at 26W.

Any sign of anything from 30W-6 yet? I wonder when it’ll move across and replace 30W-4.

Finally Hispasat 30W-6 left IOT location 26.0°W, and will arrive at 30.0°W in a few days.

Apparently most stuff has moved over from 30W-4 to 30W-6 now according to Flysat.

I'm noticing about 0.5dB less signal on the TDT Sat transponders (12548V, 12631V, 12671V etc) than usual. This might be that my dish has moved a little bit though.

Have the official footprints turned up anywhere yet?

The three aforementioned are now quite stronger at my location, coming at 16db. The rest have not moved (yet), Flysat is wrong!
