A little less analogue, and a lot more crap.

OK, not really fringe, but I've been asked if anyone is getting this transponder OK on a 70/80cm dish in London ?

Music Box Slovakia (free-to-air)
Satellite THOR 3 0,8° West
Transpondér 36
Frequency (downlink): 12 399 GHz
Polarization (downlink): linear, horizontal
Speed: 28000 MS/s
FEC 7/8

I have a 1.8m so its not difficult here.

Tricky one CH, not without weather fade.
The 'offical' footptint is 44db in London and 40 - 42 db here and I have it at half of the strength of the other transponders when the weather is bad.

Sure someone will prove me wrong though.

No, can't lock on with the Dreambox on the 80cm.

That's reassuring anyway. :)
Thought this thing was still out by a bit.
