GSAT-9 position will be 48°E. Insat-4CR is already there as a placeholder.
12 * 36 MHz Ku-band transponders (11.45...11.7 GHz).
Coverage probably only South Asia.
GSat 9 (South Asian Satellite)
TT&C on 4194 and 4197.5 MHz.

Maybe INSAT-9 is stopping right now at 97.3°E, for in-orbit testing and slot reservation.
It is a planned INSAT slot.
The transponders may cover another band like 11.2...11.45 GHz, instead of the usual 11.45...11.7 GHz.

There have been reports by "Gunasat" on facebook, first half of July of a transponder testing on 11290 V 13020.

The last TLE of GSat-9 at 97.3°E dates back to July 19, there's a chance she's on her way to 48°E now!
