Shhh. Word is 805 @ 169 E has the wobbles.
Breeze/Rebel FM have had to move their feed link to IS 19.

C or ku ?
Lunched in 1998, Intelsat 805 is an old bird, although still functional there is very little fuel to keep it stationery and so it is in an 3° inclined orbit doing a figure 8. it's still useful if your dish antenna is fitted with Auto tracking. The upside is that the transponder space is available for a bargain price. In the old days we use to have receivers with dual axis Auto tracking driving 2 actuators. Drake, Palcom were some of the brands.

Did a blindscan yesterday and cannot find any channels. Presumably because it has been moved.
Posted wrong sat. I was thinking what Eutelsat 172A is up to

Oh what a hoot. 2 duds? one at 169 & one at 172. lol
Is Intelsat managing 169 & Eutelsat 172 running late ?

Eutelsat 172A replacement, 172B successfully launched in June this year hasn't been deployed as yet.
As of today the 4159V s/r5000 MUX has been encrypted - Biss

That last post was in relation to Eutelsat at 172E not 805 @ 169E. Sorry if confused.
As for 169E: 'Horizons 3E' is due to be launched 4Q 2018 into this slot. In the mean time what is to be done with 169 E slot and Intelsat 805 ?
