Yes barney115 it looks very promising here is what I currently get with a 100cm dish from Badr-4,
S/R 27500 unless stated
======== SQ ===100cm dish + Edision Primo @ 26 east
11938 V = 66%
11958 H = 66%
11977 V = 77%
11996 H = 77%
12034 H no signal
12054 V = 69%
12073 H = 64%
12092 V = 52%
12111 H = 44%
12130 V = 56%
12149 H = 0- 55%
12169 V = 64%
12182 H 16200 =40%
12226 H = 56%
12245 V = 0-52%
12523 H = 64%
12523 V = 56%
12563 V =64%
12566 to 12635 feeds
12643 H = 64%
12683 V =59%

Badr-8 is supposed to be a lot more powerful so I will compare these results when it starts.

HOW COME 11938 H = 10.5dB Was never before listed on Flysat ??
is this a NEW TP exclusive only for Badr-8 ??
or was this a typo ??
