It is a bit of a minefield at the moment trying to work out which frequencies have migrated to Badr-8 from the other Badr's, especially if able to receive the other Badr's.
I did a scan today with EBSPro and got quite a large list of frequencies, presumably all from the cluster of Badr satellites and perhaps a bit of bleed over from E's-hail-2 at 25.8E?

For what it's worth I have attached pictures of the scan results below.
If I get time I might try and pick through them to identify the confirmed Badr-8 frequencies.

Thanks for this.
I receive same frequencies as you, but couldn't see 12360 V in your listings.
It can be received now with low (47%) but stable signal, in case you haven't discovered yet.

Slight variations due to some signals coming from different satellite positions.

But a 150cm / 180 cm dish will clear this transponder in my opinion.

I think all Badr 4 transponders are now on Badr 8.
There's a big jump on signals, especially happy about 12149 H which was the most problematic.

 

[moonbase]

Attached below is a table that lists the transponders and signal levels for Badr-8 that I created a few days ago from scans at a UK location
It might be slightly out of date if there have been more transponders moved to Badr-8 since I did the scan (Sunday).

Try again today, they probably moved the rest of them over the night.
Hopefully you should be able to receive 12149 H and 12245 V as well.

I filtered the transponder list when I did the scan a few days ago. The list was created to only show those that were listed for Badr-8 at the time on the online web sites.
If 12149H and 12245V were on Badr-4 when I scanned I would have locked them as I get Badr-4 with strong dB levels.

 

[edir66]

Ah, ok. Haven't paid attention to that part, now you'll get them with even stronger dB levels then.

 

[moonbase]

Just done a quick check, signal levels below:
12149H, SR27500 = 15.4dB
12245V, SR27500 = 14.2dB
Weather is thick grey cloud, dB levels should improve with better weather.

i am trying to tune 26e in southern spain on 1,3 dish not having much luck on s/strength cant lock, surely i should have a good signal this far south ??
