Hi guys,
Check out the 10.758H 30,000 transponder on Amos 2.
Signal strength (eirp) seems to have suddenly increased quiet a bit of late.
Getting nearly 50% on a Technomate 1500 with a 1m dish near Manchester.
Previously 10.722H 27500 was my strongest signal here but now 10.759H 30,000 is blasting in.
Is it me or has anyone else noticed this ?
regards,
Michael.

Yes thats the one. Its much stronger than before and it is Amos2 but only this transponder for some reason.
Amos 3 is much harder to recieve here as the footprint of it european beam is much less fovourable,
There was some **** on one the Ukranian channels late last night:respect-049:

I've noticed the signals from Amos 2 vary a lot, up and down like a yoyo!
