I checked out this frequency (11052 H 22000 5/6) from Cyprus today with somewhat strange results. The signal is steaming in (Strength 70%, quality 90%), exactly as we see for the tp on which Five is running. However, after adding one of the regions to the other channels and watching it, it was pixelating somewhat, pretty much like I see at this early time of the morning for the BBC/ITV coming in from 2D. I find this a little strange considering the strength and quality readings from the installer menu.
Any ideas why this might be happening?
Wonder if ITV3/4 may move over too...that would be good for us over here.

MikeO - have a look at the other thread about ITV in this section. What you say about the signal being what you would get from 2D goes with my theory that sky boxes are still looking at 2D and not 2C

Apparantly none of the ITVx + 1 versions are on freesat, so they would be good candidates to move off 2D.

I think you are right Trigger. But not all digiboxes or cards. Some get 11.052 and work ,others get 11.052 but say no signal.

The following channels have now left 10714H on 2D.

ITV1 Central SW
ITV1 Anglia West
ITV1 Tyne Tees South

They have appeared on 12402V on ASTRA 2B - not on 11052H on ASTRA 2C as had been expected. The ASTRA 2C feed is no longer carrying them.

I have just come back from my friends house in Maspalomas, Gran Canaria where they have an 80 cm dish.

I can confirm that they can receive the FTA ITV transmissions on 11052 H (Astra 2C) with their FTA box and this small dish.

Additionally, as expected their SKY box can add the channels but they are not viewable. (The strongest theory for the reason for this is that the 2C channels are giving data relating to their 2D originals and the SKY box is therefore tying to tune into 2D when the channels are selected.)

And have you tried the 2B north beam feed?
Because a few suspects are that this will more likely be the definitive tp for ITV broadcasts.
The 2C feed has already lost some channels.

I tuned 11.052 right now and I got ITV2+1, ANGLIA S ,TTN,TTG41 and G41.(Cyprus 3m)
And when I tuned 10.714 I got the same channels.
Both sets had O7F9 transport stream.
What is the frequency of the North beam feed ?

Also, My cutomer who has a 2m dish and never had bbc/itv before,tuned in 11.052 and received the itv channels and they worked. But all other sky channels had no signal,so powered off and on and sky channels returned but the itv channels had a "technical fault"

That beam requires a larger dish.

You are right there is a possibility the 2C beam is only temporary. Having said that, the channels that remain there have never been on the 2B (12402V) feed unlike the ones that disappered today that I think were there but as numbered, not named, transmissions.

Very, very bad news. Likely they are going to move Anglia S, Tyne Tees N and ITV2+1 off of 2C :mad:

Yes I know Analoguesat, you did warn us ......

Blueplatinum - even with your big dish you can´t get 2B North?

What beams can you get on what size dishes?


Cheers
