According to tsenki.com 2G can cover the following

X band: 7,250–7,750 MHz
Ku band: 10.70–11.20 GHz, 11.20–11.29 GHz, 11.45–12.19 GHz
Ka band: 18.85–21.20 GHz, 21.40–22.00 GHz

Makes sense why 2G will cover E28A TP's C1 & C2 U/L if this is the crafts spectral capacity. Also noted when at 43.5E there was a lot of testing of 11.224H/V & 11.261H/V
 
Around 2:30 11024H "jumped". It seems 2G and 2F have almost identical Beams then. We have to wait till the evening.

Also 11067V jumped at 3:00 CET. And these jumps very much higher than previous day change at that same time... Actually it seems also 11126V, 11096V, 10994H,11052H jumped. So all 2F UK beam on lower band.
 
Just checked 12226 with my TM5402 and 1.2 dish in Fuerteventura and it still finds the same channels listed on KOS as 2F Europe.

Any stronger or weaker than before the change at your location?

All stronger than yesterday, but now different slopes.

But is this only 2F station keeping effect? Or move from 2F UK to 2G UK.
 
The noon peak is much higher than before. But we have to wait and see how the daily wobble works out in the evening. Also there might be some long term adjustments as usual.
 
Just comparing my signal results in the UK and nothing has changed here, so 2G UK seems near identical to 2F UK for me if they have moved and is slightly stronger than 2E UK, just like 2F was.
 
So far levels seems like before here.

Whatever happens, am hoping CBS Action 11389 will survive, need a daily shot of Walker, Texas Ranger lol+++
And Star Trek is nice.
 
yesterday and today compared. Not much to see in this plot.

But the biggest change does seem to be on the 2F UK transponders.

Yes. I'm 100% sure they've moved. The wobble pattern is completely different now. I will post a whole days run tomorrow, then it should be obvious.
 
Sorry if I am not up to scratch - but which TP's have actually moved.

I am so near the fringe that I can not really tell moves from one bird to the other because of the wobble which is quite strong down here.
 
Gents, are you confident enough with these reports to start putting them in the prepared threads yet?
 
Lost the BBC HD's here on 11023 H 23000... It was there on a scan at 08.05hrs this morning!

Must dash now...perhaps somebody on this coast could check their reception....thanks.
