E6 At 72.2 Activated

[Tango]

Echo*tar 6 @ 72.2 Transponders were turned on last night There were 11 active TP at this time.Esho*tar is authorized to operate 16 TP's at 72.7 on right hand polarity. For those with motors on their dish or a extra spare dish you can lock onto Frequency 12.371 or 12.401 GHz and symbol rate of 20.000 to locate Echo 6.

How to
You would use a DSS LNB, same LNB as you would use for 91W(nimiq) or 110W or 119W. ON a QPH-031 LNB you would use the "C" port. Right hand polarity = V in an FTA receiver menu so Tp freq 12371 V (try first).

I just confirmed ES6 at 72.7W with an 18" dish. ES6 will host both Bev and Charlie, so that could be convenient. There may be another move coming as ES requested FCC permission to move ES8 to 77W. The slot is allocated to Mexico, so it will serve both areas.
