I agree with you Stefan. At 26 degrees east, the satellite should cover all of
Europe and Africa. Coverage may stretch west to Iceland, eastern Greenland,
and the eastern tip of Brazil. Coverage should stretch to the east to most of
India, and western halves of China and Russia.
It won't rea
Hi Joe,
Unfortunately the geostationary footprint at 26° East will not cover
North America, only parts of Brazil will be covered.
Basically the same position as Es'HailSat-1
Perhaps we will find another one willing to sponsor a position more in
the West...

That is indeed a great project!
Now, if the satellite is positioned at 26 degrees east it will not be
useful for North America. Is that correct? Preliminary footprint analysis
shows it just touches the east side of Brazil.
Thoughts and comments appreciated.

Wow, this would be great if we are in the footprint. I might finally get
a chance to use the 2.4 GHz transverter I built back in the AO-40 days.
And with the cheap LNB's we've been playing with on 10 GHz, receive
would be pretty easy. I built a 10 GHz receive system here to monitor my
10 GHz b
Satellite position will be 26° E

I checked my calendar. It is not April 1st!
Peter,
Any guess as to the longitude of the satellite?
