Telstar 12 Vantage.

It is also worth noting that there are no plans to replace the current satellites @ 28.2E,23.5E & 4.8E in the foreseeable future,
So within the next 5 years a lot of satellite TV as we know it will cease to be 19.2east being an exception also 13east, <snip>

I see the old Astra 5B has now been renamed Astra 3C and is operational at 23.5E with three transponders in service. From what I gather, 3C is four years younger than Astra 3B, so should be fine for at least another 5+ years.
 
Plus at 28E with the decline in transponder requirements one of the trio could be switched off, & relocated elsewhere - there will be plenty of spare capacity at 28E in the not too distant future as the UK PSB's turn the SD channels off.
 
BBC SATBACK service 11043V currently taken out of service. Not even an empty carrier :confused

Assume it's temporarily removed...

Back on:D
 
hi!
here in canary islands, spain i cant get them with 120 cm dish :(
i think that only at Mediterranean and MidEast beam not at Europe and Middle East.....

It is only on the Northern beam. No signal in North Italy too.
 
Do you get a lock now?

According to https://satkurier.pl/news/2342…ack-zmienia-satelite.html there a jamming signal on

11,014V (SR: 107140, FEC: 3/4; DVB-S2X/8PSK) using the Med Central Beam which also covers Germany.

ATM in Germany no lock possible, as both beams Med Central and North Sea are overlapping.
Maybe someone from Germany or/and another part of the continent can show us on the spectrum what this overlap looks like on the two beams in his/their area.
Thanks.
 
Ok, but I'm just wondering to what extent, if it weren't for the two "monster" symbol rate transponders (11012 V and 11137 V), which are interposed right in the area of 11043 V, would it be possible to pick up a signal trace on it?

But the test could very well (perhaps even more convincingly) be done from England, i.e., someone there could try to pick up a signal on the two transponders mentioned from the Med West, Central, East, MidEast North & South spots.

On another occasion, if I remember correctly, @Llew, with neumoDVB, showed us that he does not pick up a signal on those two muxes. But who knows, other islanders with bigger antennas might succeed.
So it's a two-way test.

But I haven't seen the report on the island for two muxes that supposedly create problems for 11043 V.

It is also believed that a neighboring(110-MHz something) transponder would be a source of interference.

Of course, no one method exists for all satellites with multiple spots to help determine the boundary between them. But by testing signals from different reception areas, we could determine if the two spots overlap or are well delimited by the operator.

So far, we have no confirmation that continental users can capture 11043 V. Only EnoSat(from Slovakia) on FlySat and Lyngsat seem to disprove me. However, many of his reports(not only about 11043 V) on this and other forums do not prove that the reception was made from his area.

Maybe DX Bozoth could receive this mux, but the fact that we don't have a report from him yet leaves us guessing...
 
There is no sign of 11043 V here.

If you can secure a TS, you too can report changes outside of coverage, as many contributors send incomplete or erroneous reports.
Also, many contributors will send a message about a DATA frequency, but few will send a message about the termination or transfer of such a frequency.
Therefore, Lyngsat refrains from publishing such data and only publishes verified DATA frequencies from the provider.
Therefore, Lyngsat is suitable for regular users, Flysat for "experimenters or connoisseurs" users.

How credible are those who only post based on files received and then "processed" to look good for others?

What matters is that the one who posts or makes a reception report convinces us that he, with his reception equipment, can lock tough signals, like this 11043 V at 15.0W.

I have long since realized that many of your reports are based on files received or taken from other forums (I have evidence of this) and not obtained with your antennas.

In the case of 11043 V, it is even more critical because it has attracted the attention not only of dxers but also of amateurs, even if they are not interested in seeing Satback. Beyond geographical and antenna luck, it's a matter of personal effort for dxes.

The fact that a report is sent to FlySat or Lyngsat is secondary, but it doesn't surprise me in your case.
If someone outside the forum looked at what area you are from, they would think you can receive this spot from Slovakia. Way to confuse them.

And if you haven't received and locked a signal, let those who can or are lucky receive the muxes they find.
Especially since we are on a forum where many enthusiasts post, and for that reason, we are interested in what they post.
It is not the information itself that matters but how you get it. That's what convinces us to try every one of them.
