Would you mind testing (see http://www.n2yo.com) which position you definatively have best signal at:

Current 7.52°W (07:22 UTC): Eutelsat 8 West C (Known as Hot Bird 6 Originally) NORAD ID: 27499 (which is where Flysat, incorrectly I assume state 10972 H 27500 is broadcast from) Live Tracking: http://www.n2yo.com/?s=27499 [Official Position 7.5°W]

Current 7.34°W (07:30 UTC): Eutelsat 7 West A [aka Nilesat 104] (Known as Atlantic Bird 7 Originally) NORAD ID: 37816 (which I assume is the Nilesat Bird you are receiving this from in Italy) Live Tracking: http://www.n2yo.com/?s=37816 [Official Position 7.3°W]

Current 7.04°W (07:35 UTC): Nilesat 201 NORAD ID: 36830 Live Tracking: http://www.n2yo.com/?s=36830 [Official Position 7°W]

I suppose for completeness I should list the two 8/8.1°W Birds:

Current 8.09°W (07:41 UTC): Eutelsat 8 West B NORAD ID: 40875 Live Tracking: http://www.n2yo.com/?s=40875 [Official Position 8°W]

Current 9.14°W (07:45 UTC): Eutelsat 8 West A (Known as Atlantic Bird 2 Originally) NORAD ID: 26927 Live Tracking: http://www.n2yo.com/?s=26927 [Official Position 8.1°W, to be currently tracked at 9.14°W suggests all operations moved to Eutelsat 8 West B and AB2 is being relocated elsewhere - further West]

Flysat's dubious info:

I get maximum signal for this TP on 7.3W nilesat (eutelsat 7wa). I tried to move my 1.2 meter dish to eutelsat 8 but there is no signal.

Flysat's dubious info:

Eutelsat 8 West A is being relocated to 12.5 West , Eutelsat 8 West C will be relocated to 33 East .
10971 V is on The MENA beam of Eutelsat 8 West B .

from rome italy

There is signal on 8.1W 10971 V 27500 on my 1.06m in North West England, from the MENA Beam which officially ends at the base of Italy so you should catch it at 8.1W, especially as your dish is bigger and you are nearer the footprint..... ;):cool::rolleyes:

You should be able to get :

10971 V 27500
11013 H 27500
11054 H 17000
11096 H 27500
11137 H 27500
11177 H 27500
12604 H 27500
12644 H 27500

for me there's no need to move the dish from 7.2 to 8.1

Good reception here in the East of England with 100cm on New MENA beam on E8WB :thum:

Nice of them to cut a slot in the footprint to cover parts of France & England :)
