Great, you figured out the plan of AT2. :)

Did you also finish the plan of AT1 ?
You mentioned 25 TP's in this thread, while according Gunter's, AT1 has 32 TP's.
So that would mean for the band 11.7...12.5 GHz that has a grid of 40 TP's, there must be 8 TP's missing on AT1.
 
the tricor provider will be start comercial service on express at 1 56e
from 22 april
 
Wonder what the beam into Europe will be like. Though, I know there are two beams - Siberian and "Wide".

In fact AT1 have 32 TPs, but I have been missed the beginning of tests, so can't say anything about tests of another TPs in 11700-12200 MHz subband. I suppose we'll know that soon )

Express AT1 has stopped this evening at 55.97°E position. Probably second phase of testing will begin soon, so 16 April could be the true date of commercial service.
In the same time, Bonum was switched off in the morning (no signal anymore by people's reports), preparing to go to qraveyard orbit.
 
Last midnight (by Moscow time) all transponders of Direct 1R were switched off, then part of transponders of Express AT1 are switched on for testing and TV content filling. NTV Plus Vostok provider going to use Right Circular polarisation, while Tricolor TV Siberia will use Left Circular polarisation.
These carriers are active at the moment:
11996L, 12034L, 12073L, 12188L, 12265L, 12341L, 12418L, 12111L, 12149L, 12226L, 12303L, 12380L, 12456L (Tricolor TV Siberia).
12169R, 12245R, 12322R, 12399R, 12476R (NTV Plus Vostok).

These three peaks 11996, 12034 and 12073 are strong here in NL, probably another beam.
Nothing above these yet.
 
Which beam they using, east only? 11996/12034 give weak signal but nothing from other frequencies. That another beam should be strong also here in Finland. I just tried with Inverto circular Lnb but maybe I mess up something or east beam only so far..?
 
it is end of promo here,russians tuned downlink antenna and now I can hardly get 12384L...<_<
56E-12384L.webp
 
So for the record, with 120 cm and linear LNB, 11996L, 12034L and 12073L were booming in with over 15 dB S/N, after entry of symbolrate 27500. Not lockable though.

Since about noon UTC, the S/N of these three has dropped to about 3.5 dB.

No trace of anything above 12.1 GHz here.
 
I get three circular polarised transponders with IBU in Helsinki, strong signal with misaligned 110 cm dish. 12 dB with GB Quad nonsense decibels. Same channels found with V and H polarisation, so it's circular. I have same thing with TNV at 36E. All 15 are HD channels and six of them encrypted. DVB-S2 27500, propably 8PSK 3/4.

11996L 5 encrypted channels, 12034L 5 ch (1 enc, 4 FTA), 12072L 5 FTA channels. Using network search goes through several other transponders, but finds nothing from them, propably they are in siberian beam.
 
Yes I think so too. the three L transponders mentioned are wide beam , the rest is Siberian beam.

The three wide beam peaks are still here, but no dB reading any more.
Signal drop-off over Germany must be very steep according reports: in the East they are locked quite easily, in the West no chance.
