I was scanning Galaxy 3c this morning and a huge tp scanned in unencrypted in AC3 audio. Only problem is that no channel appears and stb doesn't say it's scrambled. Looking at the channels there seem to be many music channels- 61 channels scan in:
4021 V 29270

Scanned today and shows two new tp's, i have seen those on 121w sat, this appear that have more ITC channel than 121 sat like Sony USA, Telesur, etc.
3860 v 29270 and 3780 V 29270 all SD, some AC3 audio.

Thanks for the info MX, I scanned earlier today but they didn't scan in. I just came up with 16 open channels between the 2 tp. These tp look identical to the 2 on G23 at 121w. Also noticed the Greek Channel Mega Cosmos.

Hey costa maybe another zombie sat crossing in front of the 121 sat, like some other muxes that come and go.

That made me wonder just what happened to Galaxy 15 that had went "zombie", I hadn't heard anything lately.

Pass of AMC-11
See also: AMC-11 and SES-1
On May 12, 2010, Intelsat and SES World Skies confirmed that Galaxy 15 would pass close to the latter's AMC-11 satellite, potentially causing interference with cable programming over the United States since the two satellites broadcast on similar frequencies.[11] Between May 23 and June 7, 2010, Galaxy 15 passed within half a degree of AMC-11.[12] As the two satellites passed close to each other, particularly during closest approach on May 31 and June 1, signals from Galaxy 15's still-active transponders could have interfered with signals being broadcast by AMC-11.[12] SES maneuvered the AMC-11 satellite to reduce the possibility of interference. The SES-1 satellite followed behind Galaxy 15 during the pass to provide a backup to AMC-11 should it be needed.[13] On June 2, Intelsat and SES reported that no interference had occurred during closest approach, with the satellites passing within 0.2 degrees of each other.[14]
[edit] Later passes
After it had passed AMC-11, Galaxy 15 continued to drift Eastwards. Between 12 and 13 July 2010, it passed Galaxy 13/Horizons-1, a satellite located at 127.0° West which is owned jointly by Intelsat and JSAT Corporation. The pass was not reported to have caused any disruption to broadcasts being made by Galaxy 13/Horizons-1.[15] On 26 July 2010, Galaxy 15 is expected to begin a pass of another Intelsat spacecraft; Galaxy 14, which is located at 125.0° West. Closest approach is expected to occur on 30 July. On August 8 2010, the satellite will drift toward a satellite owned by GCI, a broadcast company broadcasting to rural Alaska. As a result, many rural areas in Alaska will lose internet and telephone service.[16].
[edit] Expected loss of power
The satellite is expected to lose attitude control sometime in late August or early September[17] when its reaction wheels become saturated. This will prevent the spacecraft's solar panels from tracking the sun, and it will shut down. After the power reset event, further attempts will be made to recover control of the satellite.[16]
