i think for the canaries your best way now would be iptv or intelsat if you get it where you are,, i still think the signal is far and unbeleivably too strong and we may see a heavy drop in the next hours
It has been completely stable since 11am and if you look at Llew's spectrum trace from the UK it is identical to 1N power there so unlikely it will be turned down.
 
Map now updated to thisd point. Thats it for tonight - almost my bedtime so I shall go and pour myself a small whisky and watch the forum for another 20 minutes or so :)
 
Errm, could you Fax me a wee Dram also - been here since o'crack this morning!

Off to bed. Who knows, we might wake up in just a few hours to find several live TPs have been migrated! Is anyone staying up all night?
 
Ive added in a few Spanish & Portuguese reports from another forum. The Spanish situation is interesting.

Better link than the one centred/zoomed in on Oslo!

My dish is a prime focus one(120cm), and it gives me great result with BBC, CH4 and ITV on 1N.
To adjust the horisontal tps was very difficult, but not so with the vertical ones. My this be part of the problem with 11023H.

At the moment the satellite 2F has an elevation 21 degrees from Oslo. The dishpointer shows 18.4 degrees for Oslo at 28.2E, and this is 2.6 degrees lower.

There is no lock in Tenerife I have been testing since 1pm. Tested 3 dishes all 2.9 meter. 100% not working in Tenerife.
Maybe someone from Lanzarote reported a lock from memory but they have always been able to get a better signal that Tenerife. A few hundred kms east and more northern.

We are about 3db less than 1N. So no chance. Need a minimum 3.5 meter dish.
i know i sound like a broken record but what about the WAB using SAME frequencies ....??

not got any reports from Roswell on your map then :-crying
 
Here on Portugal, Lisbon no signal at all on 11023h with 2,10mtr. dish.

As reference have on 1N channels around 16db signal level.

Hope this is just a test, or all bbcs and Itvs will be lost. Many expats are going to have a big surprise around here.
 
TENERIFE... you need to get a tbs card so you can do some scans.
 
pickup this on the forums ...

11023H 23000 quite strong this morning - generally 75 or 76% but it's a bit unstable, jumping between 74 and 79. There is cloud cover - judging by what I can see of the mountains at this ungodly hour it's at 2000m or so.
 
only got a 1m - am awaiting reports via my forum from the public ...will post here
No worries, was trying to have a go on crazyscan a couple of nights ago. Gave up in the end after getting so many errors :(
