Es'hail-2 beacon frequency (non-amateur)

Quote from DD0KP

Also lower signals at HA7ILM WebSDR.

Dear Heiner,

Minor notes: HA7DCD (me) running the setup, and not WebSDR but OpenWebRX (similar but open source, written by HA7ILM)

I made some dish alignments today, we had quite a strong wind and thought I lost the signal due to dish mis-alignment, but after minor fine tunes I couldn't get back it any better...

Found some nice info for the LNB-modders:

There is a trick driving those cheap xtal+PLL based LNBs ICs with more precise TCXO. Need to keep the xtal in place and inject the TCXO signal to one of it's pins. If some removes the xtal, the internal oscillator in the IC _won't start_, whatever impedance we mimic to that... it's really important.

10.706 beacon still in the noise... nothing at all

Yesterday I received a report that 10706 turned 6 - 8 dB stronger in Israel.
11205 wasn't checked.

Currently 10706 V 1m plat LNB DB6NT

Currently 11205 H 1m plate LNB DB6NT

Now in JN61FQ

11205 H

100cm Dish

Octagon LNB

Same in 10706 V

Now in KO26IU, 2.4m offset, TELE System TS201F, 10706 V and 11205H. Signal level decreased by 15-18 dB.

And this tiny PCB could be a nice HC49 replacer, on board xtal + tcxo + ldo on a HC49 footprint:

That looks nice, is that available somewhere?

HI everyone, I see a new beacon at +- 11.199.8MHz Pol. H, nothing in V, S/N30dB, with a lot of modulation. It's the first time. Es'Hail-2 or not?

My Dish is 85cm LNB Octagon Oslo unmodified. Usually I receive both beacons and tests before new year.

That is Es'hail-1 , in approx the same slot.

This is Es'Hail-1 ! RX in Brazil.

Thank You

Now in JN61FO

11205 H

80 cm Dish

Octagon LNB Slim and SDRangel spectrum 20 DB up.

Extremely weak signal on 10.706 GHz continues...

Location: GG56 (Southern Brazil)

Edson, are you (also) able to receive the 11205 beacon?
('before' it was around 26 - 27 dB SNR, now around 6 - 7 dB SNR here in JO22 with my experimental / temporary setup)

11205 RX in Brazil in H pol. ! very weak...

10706 RX in Brazil in V pol. Very weak !
