Thomas, I'd guess a diseq motor mount is not for EUMETCast with a 1.2m dish. I'm quite sure you will run into mechanical precision problems and also problems to feed the motor with current via your

Hi Thomas, The Sentinel data on HVS-2 is indeed used for more specialized applications. Much of the data can also be had via the Internet and thus the effort and expense the required to receive

John, unfortunately i had no time yet to install the new dish. The basic service is very stable indeed.Even in heavy cloud conditions with rain the s/n dropped just 0,5 db. By the way... is it a

Hi Ferdinand, Thx for the explanation. I already filled the form, but i was pretty flashed about all the new stuff in there. The HVS on transpoder2 is still a little mystery, because does anybody

Hello Thomas, With a 120 cm dish you 'should' get around 2 dB better SNR with a correctly aligned dish. Very important for HVS-1 services which have a much lower link margin level than BS. Rain/snow

Hi, now i got the 5927 and what shall I say? Everything is fine, even with the 85cm dish. I have 11DB s/n and almost no errors or lost of packets. I am curious how the 120cm dish will improve the

Hi Thomas, You do not need to request HVS as such but you must make sure you have requested/selected the items in the EO portal such as Third Party Data Services for Goes East and West, Himawari

I wonder if i need to fill a separate registration request for HVS reception. I already have pid 600 + 601 activ, but no hvs data yet. Regards Thomas

================================================================== It would be a lot more than 2db John as 21° E is a non starter for me at this location. Regards, Douglas.

Douglas, Wait till EUMETSAT are forced to use the E21B backup satellite. Up there in Scotland, you will be at least 2 dB down on what you are now. ☹ Regards, John.

=========================================================================== Will be interesting to see how they can blame Eutelsat for this. I know 0.5 dB (I am nearer 0.8dB up here) is small but

Jan, You have a real problem with your system. With a 110 cm dish in your location you should be seeing an SNR of at least 13 + dB. Regards, John. ++++++++++++++++++

Hello Stephen, Thanks for that. This confirms my now reduced SNR from the higher level this morning. Best wishes, John. +++++++++++++++++

David and Douglas, It seems I spoke too soon! My SNR is now back to normal at 15:50 having just come in. 13.1 dB from the steady high of 13.5/6 dB earlier. It's become cloudy here now but not rain

And so true! the back-up connection provides a greater sensitivity than the standard up link. Here in Italy the snr at 15.15 utc and returned promptly as described in UNS Eumetsat, at the previous

Yes! I use the latest versions, distributed via Eutelsat OTA, of eToken (Safenet) und Tellicast. Regards Hartmut -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- Von: MSG-1@groups.io [mailto:MSG-1@groups.io] Im

Hi Did you update your Tellicast-Software ? If you use Linux and when the Tellicast client software (version 2.14.5) is used in combination with the Safenet drivers this may help

====================================================================== I remember seeing the warning of the 2 short outages but did not link it to the large rise in signal this morning. This poor

Hi My signal has been degrading for the last few months used to get 12.4 DB's on TP1 . Now it's down to 11.2 DB on good days I am using 110cm Dish Jan
