Looks like a beacon, at the bottom of the 12.25...12.75 GHz range (Asian-style).

As a side note, just noticed AsiaSat leased to Amos-Spacecom already in the past.
AsiaSat 2 spent over a year (2010) at 17.0°E as Amos-5i.
AsiaSat 2 → AMOS 5i
Amos 5i at 17.0°E - LyngSat

Current transponder status with 100cm dish from 4 west Amos 2 transponder power down when coming off the arc Real time satellite tracking for: AMOS 2 Nothing here on the 2 new European transponders 11139 H & 11175 H.

It will be interesting to compare this with the scan I will do on March 1st.

Zik TV was blasting through on 11620H 3600 at 10db a few minutes minutes ago and than disappeared. Not had any signal on this frequency for ages. There was hardly anything left I could lock into on Amos with the faded signal. I wonder if this is the new satellite testing.

May be AndyX I used to get Zik,
I did notice over the weekend that a couple of transponder went over 75% Signal Quality then went back down to 46% ? this may have been Amos-7 testing.
