SES and ITV testing new FEC settings

No longer receiving 11053H on a 1.1m dish (with the change to 5/6). 1.8m is plenty. If S2 transponders got to this level there are going to be a lot of unhappy people right across Europe.

The picture shows Channel 4 - is that what this transponder is likely to be used for?
 
Did notice when I had the VU+ connected to the 1.8m dish the system gave the test signal 20780 an ITV1 +1 picon, if this means anything
 
Same HD SD tests as a few days ago on 11053 H 23000 what does LMC stand for ?
Similar test on 19.2 east 11778 V 27500 on the old CNN Int frequency on Astra 1M widebeam.

That is because the SID used to belong to ITV+1.

I note, thank you for the information levels on that channel with antenna 80cm and 100cm for possible changes.
Tomo nota, gracias por la informacion, niveles en ese canal con antena de 80cm y de 100cm para posibles cambios.

SID ==> CNN Int.
They did not change/No lo cambiaron.

Took the VU+ out for a ride today, with the intention of checking signals on a " working " 1.37 dish at the house my wife and I had to clean.
Forgot to set the HDMI connections settings to a lower level than 1080 and 60HZ, so when I got there, with the "basic" tv, could not get any picture, sound only. " OH F*** " Will try and find another 1.37 to play with in the next few days!

I think London Media Company, have checked various sites to find a precise link, but not too much luck. One good one introduced me to a Danish ( I think ) dream lover, but I think the most likely answer is London Media Company, or ATG. Anyway, this is the link I found it on https://tv-bay.com/articles/arqiva/ . Follow it at your peril, you may end back up at dream lover!
 
PS, think " Dream Lover " is a six foot Russian weightlifter called Borris! ( Only a joke! To any Russian followers of this website )
 
Chris!, make your mind up, last time I was in the UK, Sherborne was definitely in Dorset, but that was 12 years ago! I also think we used to spell it differently, I´m sure it had another vowel
Sherborne is still in Dorset. And the county boundaries go to the river Yeo at the bottom of Babylon hill.
 
Please take the location chat to pm - we are getting well off what was an interesting topic :)
