    21.5E (Eutelsat 21B)

    This transponder was still active early afternoon and despite there being thick cloud cover I was getting a SQ somewhere in the mid 50s on my TM5402M1, Triax TD110. However, there was a certain amount of picture break up on most of the 21 channels while there was no sound on at least 2 of them...

    Eutelsat 31A has started @ 30.8° East

    Has anyone else looked for the SIS feed on Eutelsat 31A at 30.8 east? Not seen it mentioned before. It's coming in fairly strongly this morning, under the odd name of 'sam asked for this' and showing a testcard. Parameters are:- 11.024H, 3330. Turksat Tanitim still there.

    Dish size info for Nilesat 7W in western Europe & the UK

    Just been updating transponder information and scanning in channels for the 7.3 West position The transponder 12.111H, 27500 was already stored in my TM5402 M1 but with it being listed on Nilesat 201 (Flysat), I wasn't expecting to receive anything. However, the signal quality shot up to 64% and...

    Just Sharing This 20.0° West

    I'm wondering if anyone else is having great difficulty in getting a sustained lock on the transponders, 12.733H, 1500 and 12.744H, 8000. Yesterday afternoon, I took a couple of screenshots showing that I'm getting pretty high signal qualities with each. With regard to Nabaa TV on the 12.733...

    Just Sharing This 20.0° West

    For those with an interest in surfing, on the sea that is, there's a feed showing the sport on 11.032H 6999 atm. My TM5402 is showing a nice and healthy SQ around 75%.

    Amazonas-1 @ 55.5 west

    At 20.25 BST, 12.630V 7200 fired up with a female Chinese-looking reporter standing in front of what was presumably tonight's stadium.

    Amazonas-1 @ 55.5 west

    This evening, I just managed to catch the very ends of the broadcasts of two feeds on 12.638V and 12.647V, both with SR 7,200 at 20.05 BST. The second was labelled as Encoder HD Pruebas.... and both showed beach scenes at Copacabana.

    62E (Intelsat 902)

    Last week, I had my motorised td110 dish raise about 5 feet or so in an attempt to get the likes of 57E and maybe 62E. To my delight, success was achieved with both of these to some extent. With 62E, I'm only managing to lock one transponder which is on the Spot2, European beam. The transponder...

    Amazonas-1 @ 55.5 west

    Picked up 2 feeds from this sat at the usual 12.630V and 12.638V frequencies between roughly 19.15 and 19.45 BST. The sky was clear to the west at the time but since then, it's clouded up and I've lost the signals perhaps because of this. Both were labelled as Bellohorizonte with the second...

    21.5E (Eutelsat 21B)

    I see that Flysat a of yesterday was reporting the addition of a total of 39 channels on the 10,856V and 10,919V transponders, both SR 27500. All of these Arabic channels are FTA and come in at around 57% with light cloud cover and locking nicely.

    21.5E (Eutelsat 21B)

    Just returned home after allowing my TM 5402 M1 to blind scan 21.5 east and found it had scanned in a staggering 295 channels of which 103 are supposedly FTA. Some, of course, will be feeds or perhaps strong transponders coming from adjacent satellites, haven't had time yet to check. As for...

    47.5E (Intelsat 10)

    The best I can achieve with my setup (TM 5402 M1/Triax TD110/IBU) are near-miss locks with the 11.673V and 11.680V transponders. The latter is holding steady with 66% quality and very occasionally drifts up to 68% when I get a fleeting lock.
