This transponder on 99W C was a beacon for small-dish experimenters. Almost always receivable, it also had content worth watching at times after the experiments were completed.
cyberham,

It would have been nice if we had been given some advance notice… not that they were required to.
I always used Lesea and Shepherd's Chapel as "locaters."
Seeing more changes in our hobby and not for the better.😟

I can't confirm since my dish mover burned up. $180 for a new PR1200? Wow.

Hi all,

Discouraging news to report.
The Lesea feeds on 99w have gone to fiber.😟

What about DEFY? I went there the other day and instead of DEFY, I had an ION channel. I just checked TVROSAT, did a Key Word Search, and nothing. Did it go to fiber too?

I also lost NHK Japan on SES3Ku. Is it gone too?

Defy was replaced by Ion programming a short time ago.


Content on the 103w KU transponder where NHK and others appeared is now on 101w KU at a slightly different frequency. :)

Thats good to know, I like NHK. It has some good programming on it. Thanks for the heads up.
