As @satosk would say, i'm fishing in two new Ka sea's at the moment trying to catch something , 42.5° East and now 26° West temporary slot.
As i am rigged at the moment, only the 1.25 Gibertini installation looking at 42.5°E has monitoring for band B and band D but will not come round to cover orbital slots greater than 1°W upwards.
The other "rod", the 1.8CM is looking at 26° West temporary slot but only has Ka band D monitoring, so can't fish for 19.2 to 20.2 fish at the moment. I might have another modded band B Hughes lnb somewhere that i could put on the 1.8 ?.


Spare Hughes Ka band B 19.2 to 20.2 GHz lnb found ..... any educated guess's most welcome to wether i rig it for linear or circular sigs for beacons or test carriers

All Hispasat/Amazonas Ka-band is circular so far. Good luck (you'll need that)!

This will be Hispasat 36W-1, that arrived at 26.0°W about 2 weeks ago for in-orbit testing.
(For those who may wonder what this is about). :cool:


I've changed the Topic title to suit ;)

Still here.I get it at 12704 H.
I presume that this is the same transponder.

Thanks for all reports so far!
Trying to create a frequency plan already for high band.
What I know of Hispasat 36W-1: total of 20 transponders, either 33 or 36 MHz.
The H transponders continue on the Hispasat 1E plan: 33 MHz transponders with 38.36 MHz separation.
The V transponders are 33 MHz as well, but with another offset with regards to H.
See the table below, transponders in yellow were reported already.
H36W-1_high band.png

Assuming 12 * 33 MHz transponders in 12.5...12.75 GHz ranges, leaves only 8 * 36 MHz for elsewhere.
So far reported (please correct if wrong or incomplete):
11533 V, 11613 V, 11695 V (beacon?)
11967 V, 12048 V, 12086 H, 12167 H.

Here is a list of all the active transponders found so far by members here & reported by Satesco & myself:-
FlySat Hispasat 36W-1 @ 26° West

Still waiting for the last one to be added to this list.

Thanks william-1! Looked again at pontiend's reports, i think he had 11967 V, 12086 H and 12167 H.
The opposite pol. is much weaker, the usual cross-polarisation that easily shows with strong carriers.
You may want to correct 12086 and 12167 at flysat.
