On Nilesat at 7 west or maybe 7.3 west, there are channels called Dubai Racing HD 1 and Dubai racing 2 and 3, both SD.

Dubai Racing HD 1 is on 12322 V 30000 and the other 2 are on 12418 H 27500.

I think they are on the same beam, which is for the Mena region.

I can easily get Dubai Racing 2 and 3 on 12418 but Dubai Racing HD 1 on 12322 is much harder to get now than it used to be.

Is anyone getting a decent signal strength on 12322 V 30000 ?

If you are, what is your location and dish size ?

Thanks very much.

I dont get them at 7.3 West:
https://www.lyngsat.com/Eutelsat-7-West-A.html

I used to get 12418 H 27500 so I'd say signal strength has been dropping off

(You should have both seperate positions stored seperately, ie

Nilesat Family of sats needs to be stored as Nilesat 7W, Eutelsat 7.3W & Eutelsat 8W

Thor Family of sats needs to be stored as Intelsat 1W, Thor 0.8W

Eutelsat 9E and Eutelsat 10E = two seperate stored locations

Astra 4A 4.8E and SES 5E = two seperate stored locations (I am sick of people incorrectly quoting this Satellite position as 4.9E)

Those that have more than just Badr4 at 26E should have 25.5E & 25.8E stored as seperate positions/satellites also

IT DOES MAKE A DIFFERENCE TO SIGNAL)

I get 2&3 at Badr4 26E:

NW England near Blackpool. Triax 1.1m (Actual Size 1.06m. Stated Performance size 1.2m)

Yes you're right.

I think that they are all on the same satellite at the same position.

I don't get Dubai Racing HD 1 at all.I used to get it but I think they have turned the power down on that TP now.

Dubai Racing 2 and 3 SD are both available at 26 east and the signal is stronger on that satellite.

Dubai Racing HD 1 is only on Nilesat I believe.

Is anybody getting 13222 V 30000 ?

If you look at the link I posted all 3 channels are on EUTELSAT 7.3 WEST, none of them are on NILESAT 7W

Dubai Racing 1 HD is on a DVB-S2 transponder 7.3W 12322 V
Dubai Racing 2 SD & 3 SD are on a DVB-S transponder 7.3W 12418 H
so 12322 V's signal will be lower than 12418 H particularly outside the intended reception area

Check: Flysat, Lyngsat & King of Sat if you need too
