It's EchoStar 5 assignments, since EchoStar 2 no longer exists.

Yup. Echostar 1 only has odds so this is the start of the transfer

Guess I need to update my TID list eh? At least I got the transponder change code cooking with grease now.

UP4 in Mpeg4HD - is this the UPLINK channel in Glorious HD??? Who's the Network boss, Digiblur?

 

[digiblur]

Historically UPx channels have been nothing but virtual place holders.

 

[JohnH]

Both Tps are currently being received here with signal level close to that of EchoStar 1.

 

[r10fret]

148 signal level from florida on my old 3900 model signal meter using 26" old voom dish aimed at an elevation of 12 degrees


E5 tp 02 109%
E5 tp 28 116%

E1 tp 31 50%
E1 tp 29 67%
E1 tp 27 50%
E1 tp 25 73%
E1 tp 23 54%
E1 tp 21 73%
E1 tp 19 52%
E1 tp 15 60%
E1 tp 11 59%
E1 tp 09 64%
E1 tp 07 60%
E1 tp 05 71%
E1 tp 03 56%
E1 tp 01 73%

E5's current footprint config must be better for FL or they are currently in high power mode testing both tps.

Anyone else on the east coast that has a line of sight on 148?

 

[digiblur]

Actually E5's footprint is worse for Florida except for Northwest Florida.

Actually E5's footprint is worse for Florida except for Northwest Florida.

The infamous "wobble" should also still be there with oscillating signal strength.

 

[MikeD-C05]

The infamous "wobble" should also still be there with oscillating signal strength.

Good think NO ONE will need to use 148 anymore.

 

[Randall DBS]

I wonder if Echo 5 makes the famous cartoon backfire noise as it moves and wobbles?

 

[r10fret]

E5 must have just taken over for E1 at 148 west

With E1 I had a reliable 50%-70% on all the odds before, now with E5 and the infamous wobble I have up to 110% but it drops down to 0% 2 to 3 times an hour for 10 minutes at a time. How did they ever use this bird at 129?
