My Satellite Setup
Triple Dragon, Dreambox 8000, Echostar AD3000ip, TBS6522,6925,6983 PCie cards.
Gibertini 1.25m motorised dish driven by the AD3000, with either Inverto BU Quad or Norsat / XMW Ka LNBs . SMW 1.05m + 3 other dishes. Speccy: Promax HD Ranger+
My Location
The Flatlands of East Anglia
Here's a data carrier in Ka Band B, presumably 0.8/1W (that's what my dish is pointed at).

20016V 44991 3/4 ACM feed.

Could be a satellite other than the usual ones there, but I don't know of any others +/- a degree around this spot (?)

Can you still find the feed please @Llew as I am struggling to find it :-(

It's always very weak with my Inverto Ka LNBF Chris. The peak's still there at present, but rain has killed any hope of a lock.

When it stops, I'll try with my Hughes LNB, - my modded Inverto has been 'tuned' for Band C working.
 
Thanks @Llew
Here is my scan with SL3,

There more active Txp I think

I will have alook carefully with another LNB ASAP

Much better with the Hughes. There's another feed at 20170V, but that may be out of your Inverto's range Chris.

I was right, there more active Txp: it's time to open a dedicated or move them to Ka band :)

now with my KA band B LNB

The best I can do for tonight... different beams I think :mellow:

Looks like I still have a problem with ghost transponders. :-( but I think I have found 1.0W Ka
 
Quite a variation in strength with these carriers, 0.1dB to 16db with me. This is using my Hughes LNB on a Triax TD88.

Thor 7 Ka Beacon?

20130 R/L

May be off absolute frequency, I'm using the Hughes with wandering LOF :eek:

A couple gone for me today, 19826R and 20109R. As is the way with feeds of course.

Thor7Ka.webp and here's my submission ..
obviously these data transponders are circular polarised ...and my Hughes is currently set physically in Linear mode ...thus repeats in both scans ...though not identical sig levels and 3db under what could be acheived ..

Nice find Feedsat :)

Wide carrier, busy PID throughput.
