Eutelsat 70b @ 70.5e

[Captain Jack]

After waiting about 10 minutes for the signal to come in due to very low elevation of this satellite for me (1.6 degrees), I managed to scan in 11294H. The signal lasted about 1 minute before disappearing again. I am now waiting for 11211H to chime in (if it ever does), so I can log that too.

If you have line of sight of this in the UK, it's worth hanging on for a few minutes to see if the atmospherics change to give you a signal.

This is on the 90cm Fibo.

Here's 11211H - slightly stronger than 11294H at peak but both easily lockable when conditions are right.

Hi, locking the two transponders mentioned by CJ at this position 11294 H 44903 / 11211 H 5111 I am getting a constant lock on both transponders at the moment last night I had fading on the HD mux, clear skys now .

 

[Captain Jack]

What quality % do you need for a lock here?

 

[Archived-1]

The HD I need about 49%, mta muslim I lock this with cloud cover, I will need more time to monitor mta muslim, but any cloud the HD mux disappears.

 

[gibertini]

get it now and then on a 80cm orbital with IBU single but not a sniff of the dvbs2 txp. the dish is high up on my chimney installed by @digi247

[Analoguesat]

Nice catches lads - Shame Ive got a few hundred thousand tons of rock in the way

 

[shawl_who]

This HEVC channel is being speculated to be a 4K channel.
Dont know, if it actually is or not.

I believe it is.

 

[Captain Jack]

It might be HEVC codec but at 720x288 resolution, it's up there with VHS tapes.

 

[Anonymous_1]

Maybe same way as selevision test @26°E with 50 channels in HEVC.
HEVC: more channels (even in SD) in one transpoder.
