Dear Analoguesat,

Hope u r ok. Eutelsat W2 @ 16 E is very week at Khartoum. Now (W2M @ 16 E according to Lyngsat & 15.? E according to Flysat) is W2M will be a replacment to the old W2. This is very important because the signal strength of W2M is 92% at Khartoum.

Regards

Eutelsat W2M partially failed during in orbit tests and has gone to 3.1E instead. It will not slot at 16E.

One of the elderly Hotbirds has gone to 15.8E instead and been redesignated Eurobird 16A.

This is just until a new satellite is launched next year.

Therefore the situation is likely to stay pretty much constant for a year or so.
 
Sorry I mean Eurobird 16 not W2M.
 
EB16A will stay in use untill next year (assuming no failure in the meantime).
 
Thanks & best regards
