[QUOTE="timo_w2s, post: 800687, member: 196043"] Funnily enough I was just looking at dishpointer earlier on today and noticed that 47°W is right on the horizon in Helsinki. Intelsat 14 at 45°W is 1° above the horizon and since I have a west facing balcony 80m in the air there's a good chance I can physically see this satellite. The problem is I can't get anything bigger than an 80cm dish up there and the 47dBW power level will no doubt be a bit weak under those conditions for an SCPC channel to get a lock but I might give it a go next time I'm over there for fun. (Assuming something is broadcasting from there to Europe? 11607/H RASD TV?) Pretty sure I won't get anything though. [/QUOTE]
