http://www.flysat.com/expressam44.php 11685H. You need to use a PC card with 4T2 Content Analyser to view this.

It's listed as Pervyj Kanal SNG - which means it's an international version, not the federal one.

Where is what - a Universal LNB or the elections Feed?

If you meant the Feed, the Receiver is the critical element, not the LNB, owing to the Modulation technique being employed.

I need evidence it works, not going to buy one just to see anyway the signal is too weak with me when I checked just now with my prof so too bad, maybe better when I get my inverto fitted but at the moment my 8 year old LNB is unable to be removed I am told...

Loads of Russian Channels added very recently: Scanned them in this morning and get fully stable reception despite Q flickering around under 20%.

11153 H 17141
11185 H 17141
11653 H 17141

11W isn't the strongest satellite up there but far from the the weakest either. I get at least 10dB on one of the TPs and close to 15dB on another.

Nothing from the first TP but the final 2 are quite strong here - 60% SQ on my TBS card with my 1m dish on 11185 and 80% on 11653 - finally something stronger for me than you ;)

Seemingly so - except that I suspect my Q readings are anomalous:, considering all three TPs produce wholly stable Video/audio. A bit of an odd one, that.

I have seen this on some transponders - the ones on 68.5E spring to mind but I do wonder if that's just because it's at such an extreme end of the arc.

Well I've tweaked Az a bit now and they're reading Q70+ on one TP and fluctuating wildly up to Q40 on the remaining two.

Very stable here - I guess a 1.5m dish helps :D

The audio seems to drop out occasionally, especially when just tuning in to a channel....

But that's the strange thing - Video and Audio are rock solid: It's just the Q Metering that's jumping around like a nervous bride.

Can someone help with 4T2 Content Analyser? So, I tuned in to that 11685H transponder and I can see the services in T2-MI tab. However, I don't see them anywhere else and video analysis tab isn't showing anything.... Am I missing something?

Got further but getting no video still. Do I need to download some codes? It's a fairly clean system...

Was just about to ask this exact same question! Just been having a play with the 4t2 content analyser, but get stuck at the same point as Captain Jack above! Anyone know?

@Captain Jack,
How did you manage to get the services to show up in the main Input/Output tab?

My Satellite Setup
Laminas 1.2M fibre dish with an IBU, on a Clarke Tech USALS motor, covering 57E - 24.5W to an Octagon SX88. Displayed on a 20" Dyon LED TV.

Seperate 80 cm dish on 28E with a Humax Freesat for SWMBO.
Free Sat V8 meter. Sony Bravia 46" LCD, Sony BluRay and Home Cinema.
My Location
Normandy, France
Just swung the 1.2M dish round and using the DrHD got the following readings :

11153 H 17141 6.6dB
11185 H 17141 9.2dB
11653 H 17141 13.6dB

(incidentally got a 'transponder full' message so had to remove some C band t/p's before I could scan)
