Vivacom 13e

It seems there has been an adjustment of the SE beam.

Since yesterday I can't get any channels from Vivacom or Nova which uses this beam

All channels using the widebeam comes in as strong as usual so there's nothing wrong with the LNB or the adjustment of the antenna.
 
they just vanished yesterday. City tv and 3 others (BNT4,PPTV and a Bulgarian orthodox channel) came in fine,now nothing left.
Balkanic isolation?
 
Did they just stop broadcasting??
None of the Vivacom or Nova transponders on the SE beam which used to be strong here comes in.

The signal is there but to weak to get any channels.
 
The transponders are all active. This is the report from Castellammare di Stabia (Naples, Italy), with an 80cm dish.

The SNR has gone from 15,8 dB to 9,0 dB now which is not enough to get a picture with DVB-S2 8PSK and FEC 5/6.
It needs around 9,35 dB so it's quite close.

A bigger antenna than the 1,1 m I'm using for 13 E would do the trick but it's not worth it for City TV which is the only channel of interest for me using the SE beam.
 
I can confirm the signal drop of Vivacom and Nova TPs on my 85 cm dish. Location: Berlin, Germany.
The drop on my Vu+ receiver:
CosmoteSport1 HD: from 99% to 75%
Max Sport 1 HD: from 96% to 59%
 
Some vivacom chanels are on 1.9 E at 12303 H 30000 good strong signals,TV1(viva la musica) ,Bulgaria 24
A few others on nearby TPs ,VTK etc... no city tv

You could try this stream in a bouquet, although it does not run smoothly here:

Working here, but not smooth (with freezes).
Don't know what is different here.
 
All's well down here in Malta. No change at all in signal with a 1mtr Dish.
 
It's gone
I think everything return as usual
You are right it seems to be back as normal now!
City TV is coming at 15,9 dB here.

Very strange makes you wonder what Eutelsat was doing earlier this week!

- We can confirm that the beam has been improved in close cooperation with our customers - said Joanna Darlington, Chief Communications and Investor Relations Officer of Eutelsat, to satkurier.pl.
