TurkSat 4A/3A@ 42 East

[Analoguesat]

Comparison here on the F3:

Turksat 4A
12344 V 30000 72%
12378 V 27500 72%
12422 V 27500 72%
12457 V 30000 72%

For comparison readings with my set up

Turksat 2A
11919 V 24444 73%
11957 V 27500 74%
12130 V 27500 73%



So bugger all difference really.

Assuming the green area on the map provided by William is the C band footprint area ...
this would confirm what I already suspected from previous info..
No C band from 4A here in the UK
Doh!

..Hope I'm wrong...

@AS: I've never seen Q readings over 75 on my F3s, so suspect that's a quirk of the metering, and in reality there may well be differences - they just cannot be discerned without "proper" meters.

Green area is not beam C-Band, Ku-band beam is Africa (frequency 12500 ~ 12750 Vertical).

No mention of C band given in the link the green map for Africa is for Ku band

Just beat me to it

12422 H 30000 3/4 QPSK is now locking, slightly above the 4.5 dB threshold (scanned Turksat Tanitim promo).
12245 H 27500 5/6 8PSK is 7.5 dB already, but this mode needs 2 dB more so that will probably never happen...
12379 H 30000 3/4 QPSK is absolutely 0.0 dB, I suspect it's the Turkey beam!

Cheers guys ...
looks like there's still hope then..

What you need - what you really, really need - is a 3.0m Dish, VS.

 

[Analoguesat]

I know where there is one up for grabs too

New tp. 12329H 6666 2/3 8PSK,Fox HD.

 

[satesco]

A test program -Fox TV? -12337 H,5520,3/4,QPSK,with strong signal,but than desappeared.

Türksat 4A @42º East-------Footprint

 

[Analoguesat]

The 4A footprints are almost as bad as the Insat ones. One beam is basically a line drawn round Turkey that covers the conquered bit of Cyprus but not the rest.....

 

[Marcus_21]

Footprints of Turksat 4A more detailed..

 

[adonis1]

12072V 20.0 db !!! extremely powerful ( 20.0 db it's the ceiling of F15 )
12245H 19.0 db , also too strong .

 

[Analoguesat]

12072V no signal a few minutes ago - its now on with a very unsteady carrier.

Its yoyoing between 25% & 65%!

 

[Analoguesat]

Switching errors!

10982H 9600 is on the west beam instead of the east beam as is 10966H 15200 DVB-S2
