NEW SATELLITE NOW LIVE PLEASE REPORT ANY CHANGES

a TEST running on ASTRA2F

11023 Polarisation H DVB-S2 8PSK SR: 23000, FEC 2/3 (TP61)bbc hd test
you would need to ADD CHANNELS on a SKY HD BOX and have a 3M DISH

testing
Lanzarote 11023 only 5.3db MER on a 3M dish
BBC ONE WALES on same dish is 10.6db

I'm not too "up" on satellites, how do we know if the signal is from Astra 2F or Astra 1N?

I will tell you you cant tell yourself . they ´seem´´ do one knows for sure to be using that FREQ on the new satellite .waiting for ppl to come home from work and give reports
but NONE of the BRITISH channels have moved yet,just a new BBC HD channel that is not in service . even though the signal is not to bad in mainland spain at this time ,it has completely been cut off before reaching Germany or even norway
THOUSANDS of people have been sold small dishs in mainland spain to get BBC since feb2012 and now they are not getting a signal ..
SIGNAL in UK is much higher

TEST REPORTS FROM 3m DISHS IN TENERIFE SHOW TOTAL LOSS OF BRITISH PSB CHANNELS -this is only a test on one channel only

BBC One HD Wales test (11023 H) on Astra 2F @ 28.2° East
BBC One HD Scotland test (11023 H) on Astra 2F @ 28.2° East

BBC One HD Wales test (11023 H) left Astra 1N @ 28.2° East
BBC One HD Scotland test (11023 H) left Astra 1N @ 28.2° East

Another report using a 2.9m dish was NO SIGNAL on BBC HD WALES/SCOTLAND

REPORT ...11023H does not work in Tenerife. Not on 2.4 channel master and also not on 2.9 offset laminas.

REPORT There is no lock in Tenerife I have been testing since 1pm. Tested 3 dishes all 2.9 meter. 100% not working in Tenerife.
Maybe someone from Lanzarote reported a lock from memory but they have always been able to get a better signal that Tenerife. A few hundred kms east and more northern.

We are about 3db less than 1N. So no chance. Need a minimum 3.5 meter dish.

REPORT Here on Portugal, Lisbon no signal at all on 11023h with 2,10mtr. dish.
As reference have on 1N channels around 16db signal level.
Hope this is just a test, or all bbcs and Itvs will be lost. Many expats are going to have a big surprise around here.

ANY ONE WITH A BIG DISH CAN YOU CHECK if you get BBC1 LONDON ch 101
and can you get BBC1 SCOTLAND ch 951 on a sky box
