Yes, I've lost it here as well. It was quite strong when I first scanned it in.
I can only receive now 11.004H, 10.972V, 10.978V, 11.488V (which I didn't get anything on when I first scanned), 11.524V (which is very strong), 11.601V, and 11.678V.
Strange as all these transponders are supposedly on the same beam!

Yes it is still there but it has dropped from about 80% reception to 50% which on my receiver is borderline. At the moment it is steady on 52% but yesterday it was dropping into the the mid 40s and breaking up.
Would suggest the transponder 10731V 27500 has switched to Western Beam as opposed to Widebeam as it was before. This would account for the signal reduction. Still 56% SQ in South of UK.. See Eutelsat Chart here http://www.eutelsat.com/satellites/E...coverage.html#
Was showing some war movie, "Age of Heroes" according to their site, though the times listed on the website don't seem to make any sense, as it was listed for 10AM this morning.
Doing a scan now, I bet I can't get the channels, I've got a 1metre motorised as well, I'm in Hull which is slightly further south then Liverpool and a lot more eastern.

I managed to receive some of the transponders on 21.6E on a 90cm,in West Yorkshire,including the Majestic transponder,but lost it when others did too,now I'm not receiving 21.6E at all.
Tomorrow at 22:15 GMT, WDR will show a documentary about the 80s music show "Formel Eins", followed by four original episodes from '83, '85, '86, and 1988.

Enjoy! ”
Yep, it will be for today only. The non-HD versions on 19.2E are also FTA, as are the Belgian channels.
The French Belgian channels aren't too interesting though, all dubbed.
