Hello John,

no stable signal and not lockable, 4184 R.

Best Regards
qwer.

Ok thanks for looking @dx qwer , I'll keep an eye on it to see if develops into anything in the future.

4184 R has left.

4184 R has left.

... Still here with me at the moment at 8.40pm UK time, slightly higher level than the other night, now at ~8.6dB but still no lock.
TIEMPO REAL HD at 4194 R locking good tonight.

• Thanks John.
• I can´t get a signal from 4184 R, even not in hard lock. Todays scan with snow in the dish...

Attached below is my miserable contribution to the scans of 47.5W for C Band. This satellite is at my westerly limit and I have restricted visibility due to tree branches and buildings.
The scan was carried out using a Precision 1.5m dish and a single output Titanium C band LNB, only three transponders unfortunately and all of them at poor to moderate signal levels.

Hey MB, are you still upgrading to a larger size? I think you had a project to install something larger at some point...

CJ,

I sold the Precision 2.2m with the intention of replacing it with something larger. However, like most of my satellite projects, things have become delayed. I still have the mobile platform and the heavy duty polar mount with ground stand, I just need a dish to mount on it all.

hi all managedto get the mux at 3844L 30000 at 8.5db never got this before.

 

[Captain Jack]

Coming in at 9.4dB here - thanks for the heads up!

Must say that picture quality is a little awful... despite being "HD".

 

[dx qwer]

Probably new mux here (and not occasional):

3831 R 8333 3/4 DVB-S2 8PSK

DW in clear (ID: FEED 1 HD), others encrypted.

Following my miserable contribution to this topic in post 29 above I have returned with a few more eggs in the basket. This time I have used a Precision 2.0m dish with a variety of LNB's and feed arrangements. The scan results are summarised in the table attached below.

One point to note is that the ADL polariser used for the test did not allow for much adjustment of the scalar. Based on signal optimisation by scalar adjustment on the other LNB/Feed arrangements listed in the table I think the ADL arrangement would have performed better if I had been able to locate the scalar further back along the ADL polariser barrel.

New channel on this mux, Asteriod Day

... can only get 5dB max here with this one and no lock, can also see 3765 R at the side of it and also 3740 R & 3742 R but level too low .

Here is a C-Band catch from 47.5 West.

Frequency 3803 L, SR28793, DVB-S2, 8PSK, FEC 5/6 - signal level required for a lock = 9.4 dB
Provider = Mediapro Portugal
Channel ID = Feed 1 Backup
biss encrypted in HEVC and 4:2:2

It is an 8 channel mux. I have attached a picture from one channel of the mux below. If the signal level improves later and the feed is still active I will try to capture some screen shots from the other channels in the mux. At the moment I am on the threshold of a lock with an intermittent picture.

 

[moonbase]

The signal level for this mux was a bit stronger today and I managed to get pictures for all 8 of the channels in the mux.
The mux is covering the 2019 Parapan American Games held in Lima, Peru.

Frequency 3803 L, SR28793, DVB-S2, 8PSK, FEC 5/6 - signal level required for a lock = 9.4 dB
Provider = Mediapro Portugal
biss encrypted in HEVC and 4:2:2

Some of the feed channels are active with pictures of events, others are showing the Mediapro test card. A full set of pictures from all channels is pasted below.
