⚡ The Intelsat 38 Sweep

A major multiplex overhaul at 45°E has migrated 13 primary regional and international feeds onto two high-density transponders. Check your tuning specs below.

🔓 Premium Encryption Drop

TIN - The Israeli Network has dropped its conditional encryption parameters on Eutelsat 9B and is currently broadcasting completely unencrypted.

Weekly Telemetry Analysis: June 23 – June 24, 2026

It has been an incredibly busy 48 hours for satellite hobbyists and DXers alike. A coordinated engineering rearrangement on Intelsat 38 (45°E) has consolidated a large package of Eastern European, Turkish, and Caucasus-focused broadcasts into clean, wide-beam multiplexes. Meanwhile, the dynamic status of TV Congo continues to surprise viewers with a swift exit from Hot Bird, and alternative networks are finding new homes on the TurkmenÄlem arc.

🚫 Blackout Tracker: Lost & Discontinued Signals

If you are encountering a "Signal Dropped" or "Scrambled" error on your receiver for these specific entries, they have officially migrated away from their legacy transponders:

  • TV Congo: Has officially departed its Hot Bird 13G footprint (12149.50 MHz, V) as of June 24.
  • Persiana Fight HD: Signal pulled from TurkmenÄlem / MonacoSat (11220.60 MHz, V).
  • Persiana Cinema: Broadcast has terminated on TurkmenÄlem (11382.00 MHz, H).

📘 Satellite Technical Glossary

Use these metrics to help debug any manual tuning difficulties on your setup:

  • Mux (Multiplex): A high-capacity system that bundles multiple TV channels, radio stations, and metadata into a single transponder stream.
  • Polarisation (Pol): The direction of the satellite wave's orientation. H indicates Horizontal alignment; V indicates Vertical alignment.
  • SR (Symbol Rate): Measures the amount of digital data symbols sent per second. A higher number (like 30000) indicates a dense, multi-channel stream.
  • FEC (Forward Error Correction): A structural math ratio used by your set-top box to reconstruct missing data fragments caused by bad weather.
  • Clear / FTA: Unencrypted transmissions. These require no premium smartcards, accounts, or CAM modules to open on your equipment.

🛠️ Pro-Tip: Navigating the Tamadon HD & Intelsat Shifts

Keep a close eye on the 52°E and 45°E positions this week. For example, Tamadon HD briefly vanished from 10887.40 V on Tuesday night, only to completely re-stabilize on that exact frequency matrix early Wednesday morning. If a channel goes missing during these massive migration windows, don't immediately change your dish alignment! It usually means network operators are simply adjusting their transmission parameters. Wait a few hours, then run a targeted Transponder Scan (TP Scan) directly on 11094 H or 10887 V to quickly index the new changes without scrambling your existing layout.
