    8w is easily viewable on a 60cm dish but i wonder what happened to 7w no signal at all on a 2m dish i used to view some v transponders on a 1m dish but only at certain times of the day and i'm based in n wales where the signal is even more problematic just tried 11.747 v on my andrews 1.2m and i it's just under threshold probably with a tweak i could resolve a picture

    MBCs move to Atlantic Bird 4A, which works as a 7.2 ° W.
    MBC Channels leave the satellite Nilesat 102
    Published: 09.03.2011, 17:19

    Arab media company MBC Group, the family ceased distribution channel for the MBC satellite Nilesat 102 at the orbital position of 7 ° W. From Tuesday, March 8, 2011 programs are available only on satellite Atlantic Bird 4A, which works as a 7.2 ° W.

    Packet MBC worked Freq 11.938 GHz, pol V, SR 27500, FEC 3 / 4 and included station MBC 1, MBC 2, MBC 3, MBC 4, MBC Drama, MBC Action, MBC Max and channel Al Arabiya Citruss TV Hawas TV Wanasah, Abu Dhabi Drama Zee Aflam and Al Aan TV. Transponder 11.938 GHz is not currently used.

    Channels MBC 1, MBC 2, MBC 4 and MBC Action MBC Max is now broadcast only on satellite Atlantic Bird 4 A (7.2 ° W) on the frequency 12.437 GHz, pol H SR 27500, FEC 3 / 4, DVB-S/QPSK. Posting is still distributed under the FTA.

    Moving programs from the MBC satellite Nilesat 102 Atlantic Bird 4A revenue conditions have worsened significantly in Central Europe. The Czech Republic is required to receive the dish diameter 200 cm. Better conditions are receiving towards the southeast.

    Currently, the only income the Arab satellite station MBC Badr 4 at the orbital position of 26 ° E. Package MBC channels are broadcast on the frequency 11.919 GHz, pol H SR 27500, FEC 3 / 4, DVB-S/QPSK. To receive a transponder is required from the dish diameter of 90 cm.

    More News:MBC moves closer to HD bouquet Bad news for Humax users. Chicka
    Pan Arab satellite broadcaster MBC has engaged Technosat to provide set-top boxes for customers of its forthcoming high definition (HD) channel bouquet, according to Broadcast Pro Middle East.
    The non-exclusive satellite HD offer will be launched by MBC later this year, according to the report, once technical difficulties have been erased and platform deals have been agreed.

    Although the HD service will, like MBC’s other satellite channels, be free-to-air, the broadcaster says that some Hollywood studios require their HD content to be encrypted – hence the need for set top boxes to decrypt the signal.

    “The channels will be HD versions of current MBC channels that will benefit most from HD broadcast,” Mazen Hayek, MBC’s official spokesperson and group director of PR and commercial, told the magazine.

    “Some of the US studios who supply our Western content insist that HD content is encrypted. Therefore, we shall be encrypting the signal and people will need to have a certain type of box or card to decrypt the signal,” Mr Hayek added. “However, once they have this box or card – a one-time purchase – our HD channels will be totally open and free.”

    Just to add to evertything you have heard.

    Here in Spain we receive these channels as you no on a 80/100cm dish.
    The following was reported yesterday

    Missing MBC channels.


    MBC channels
    MBC1, MBC2, MBC3, MBC4, MBC Action and MBC Max
    on frequency 11938 27500 3/4 are no longer operating.

    It may mean that they have moved to a new frequency.
    This new frequency is being reported as being
    12437 H 27500 2/3 on Atlantic Bird.

    I cannot confirm this as I am unable to receive this transponder in my location,


    Some reports are saying that this move may be a temporary move.
    According to the reports, some channels on Nilesat satellites have been subject to jamming, as a result of some of the recent issues in the Middle East and North Africa. In a statement, MBC say that their channels will be on these temporary frequencies until the interference on their original frequencies is stopped.

    The good news for me is I can still view these channels on 26e at the moment.
