Can't find 85W ku

[jduffin]

I am trying to get my Azboz Ultra all dialed in and I can't seem to locate 85W ku. I do have 83W and 87W working.

According to Lyngsat, DN has a test card on 12183 H 3978. Can someone verify for me that this transponder is active? Are there any other active transponders on this bird?

That transponder has been inactive for a long time, the only active transponders on that satellite are Data DVB-S2 transponders.

That would explain why I can't find it. Since my receiver is capable of receiving S2 signals, could you tell me what an active transponder is on that bird?

Thanks

EDIT: Thebaggins is right, I just double checked and 12184 H 3978 is active.

SatelliteGuys.US_TheList - 85.0°W AMC 16 Ku for the DVB-S2 transponders.
