Re: Astra 2F

hi guys

just corious: any more info about this (exact channels?) - some friends don't stop asking me ... all a bit afraid to loose uk channels here ...

I don't think we'll know until the satellite becomes operational to be honest.
Hope it doesn't affect our European members too much.
BBC does have some quality programming.

Heard rumours about new footprint on 2F, everybody down here in Southern Spain won´t be very happy if rumours turn out to be right.

They are just That Rumours until 2F has been positioned at 28.2° east no one will know what the footprints are.

Re: Astra 2F

there are some new reports about this bird. many people think 11023 mhz is now on 2F spot beam. and according to reports many people from spain and france still receiving it but on the other hand, beam is tighter in east-west directions and many people from portugal, germany, poland etc can't receive it.

Re: Astra 2F

If any of our foreign country friends would like to test the UK spot beam on Astra 2F to see if reception is viable then try the following frequency

11023h 23000 2/3 DVBS2 8PSK

This will bring in 2 BBc Channels labled as 8011 & 80911 or something to that effect
