I think on the picture you see ArabSat 5A at 30.5° E ? (also two beacons on 10706)
I can't see the 10706 or 11205 beacon from Es'hail-2 anymore (well... faint traces) since Jan 10th.
Looks like you use a Starcom SR-3602 LNB (?)
Es'hail-2 beacon frequency (non-amateur)

I am using the SR - 3602.If there is no 10.706 beacon signal.How do I know has been aimed at the eshail2?

There are five repeater
11270H
12321H
11880H
11142H
11269H

I found you mentioned the signal.But still not sure whether from eshail2 for decoding at the same time come out many TV programs
@ Zhaofeng
No, but that signal comes from 26 degrees EAST I think it's HailSat-1. But it being understood that in the same position you also receive ES'HailSat-2 with a 80 cm dish, of course if you have a 120 you have to refine.

How can I confirm that I received eshail2? I am dizzy... I used a 120cm antenna with an elevation of 12.2 degrees

Tune to 11205 more or less you should see this Horizontal Polarization.

BG0AUB When you receive 11199.8H beacon (as you presented in your pictures) you are accurate enough for Es'hail-2. 11199.8H beacon is from Es'hail-1 and is approximately in the same orbital slot.
IK0EQJ zhaofeng is in another part of the world, and I doubt the (MENA) beams of Es'hail-2 (engineering beacons) have coverage in China. So he very certainly sees other things (not) than we here in Europe. E.g. you have good copy of 11205H while are my lattitude since 10 Jan it almost disappeared.

You can just wait until the amateur transponder is tested again (or is being opened) and then you can align using that signal. At least you know that you have the correct signal and that the transmit antenna is "global beam" instead of some narrower beam that does not send much signal to your location.

Ok I do not know the situation in China but I still get the EB of ES'HailSat-2 on 11205 some weaker signal.
I know and see : -)

In addition to pe1chl I can say that when the NB-transponder was open on 16/17 January it was very convenient to precisely point the dish to the transponder(noise) looking at the waterfall. While tweaking I saw the 'overall' effect of the transponder noise MUCH better in the waterfall compared to tuning to a (single) carrier of a beacon (which always exhibits some QSB).
-
Yes, the noise test was very useful for several things.

zhaofeng, maybe your dish is aimed well at 26 ° E but the skew is badly set. Make a verification. and let us know if this data is correct for your QTH.
Unfortunately, the TV channels you receive do not receive them and vice versa. From Rome I can receive the channels broadcast on MENA BEAM while you receive the channels broadcast on Central Asia BEAM. We can not confirm with you on these TV channels.
The same for the beacons. From 13 January 2019, the beacons of Es'hail-2 are broadcast on MENA BEAM (Middle East North Africa). Are they coming up to you? Again, check the SKEW LNB.
If you can not, do not worry. When the Qatar-Oscar-100 (P4A) transponders are turned on, everything will be easier.
-
In my case 10706 and 11205 do not have any signal, maybe it is the antenna beam problem... My polarization Angle is now about 40 degrees... Can be adjusted to 11200 with the strongest signal.

hi I don't understand what kind of signal that transmits no Wfax ?????
