nice catch Martin, Nollywood is a premium channel in the UK, so at least you will be able to enjoy it for free :D

Hi I am locking this slightly E of 70.5 E, I cant lock anything in at 70.5 when this is locked in and vice versa 12593 H 8500 Tagged PR2510 would someone confirm its position please.
Found it, this is coming from 68.5E, it must have been ghosting :) :(, I will keep looking :)

Thanks J:)

Nice one :) @martin-f is that on the 1.2?

Yes pal 1.2, I think 66E is a harder catch than this, strong signals here 69% on the X2, this would probably go up to 85+ if I put the Technomate box in line.

Testcard ? , this frequency was reported as DATA, I didn't check it by myself recently.

Could it be DATA with testcard like 47.5°East "Outernet " (12602V)

I'll check it tonight ;)

A little less analogue, and a lot more crap.

It should be quite an easy catch from your location CH 72.1 is 2.3 above the horizon, 70.5E here is 2.0 and 72.1 is 1.1 74 0.0 :(


Thanks, but yeah (but no........but yeah !)

The tree has also obscured most signals further west from 72E, I doubt I could get 68.5E at the moment with the 1.8m, but the 1m is a smidgen higher on the roof (and about 2metres further north- ish) and will try when I get the time.

Hi,

Has anybody in the UK managed to get a lock on the C Band signals from 68.5E?
