Anyone having issues with 3900/H/29125//5/6? It's the only transponder that is having issues for me today.

Luken on SES1? I don't see that in the lyngsat list for 101 degrees (I see it on sathint though). It could be that it is an uplink around Houston--3 inches an hour would be over the limit of rain dropouts if it is (I do see Tenn as the headquarters for it).

SES has several up-link locations here in the States, they are Alexandria Virginia, Bristow Virginia, Hawley Pennsylvania, Manassas Virginia, South Mountain California, Sunset Beach Hawaii and Woodbine Maryland, so nothing close to the storm, maybe some thick cloud cover but it would have to real thick to affect an up-link.

I suppose. I used to keep a close eye on our return signal and if I was getting a poor signal, I would boost the uplink power to compensate for the clouds over us (there was an auto compensation setting but it was old equip) but that was Ku band and not C.
Still when I looked at sat weather maps last night it did look like some of the rain bands were getting to Tenn and we don't know where the guy was at so HE could have been in the rain bands.
It started working again. Maybe it was due to the hurricane. I noticed sathint has been updating faster than lyngsat lately.
Luken not working again. Anyone else having this problem?
