[QUOTE="timo_w2s, post: 916769, member: 196043"] I was looking at the Eutelsat website about future launches and noticed they've updated Eutelsat 9B's footprints and they are now quite different to the originally published ones, plus there's an extra German B footprint. These new footprints don't look as bad as the original ones but it seems frequency reuse might not be as widespread since almost all the footprints overlap each other except the Italy and Nordic ones. The "Greek" beam now weaves it's way up to the UK! Quite strange. Perhaps Eutelsat have had a re-think about who would be able to afford the original Greek spot... The original German spot has been widened to include countries to the east with more power than most of Germany. The only original one seems to be the Italy spot. Even the Nordic beam has been changed to be more favourable to southern Finland. It all looks a bit messy and not really sure what benefit this gives to broadcasters? The good news is the "Greek" beam covers the whole of the UK now and the new German wide beam covers the eastern side of the UK. [/QUOTE]
