G17 In Position?

[photoman76]

Lyngsat shows Horizons 2 has taken over for Galaxy 17. I haven't seen any official announcements from Intelsat or JSAT yet. As of yesterday, Galaxy 17 was still located at 74 degrees West.

Somebody probably jumped the gun

Hey Al,

Haven't heard from you in awhile. Hope everything is fine in beautiful GA.

Hey Jim, everythings fine here in Georgia, except it's colder than it should be at the North Pole. I haven't been on here much in the past couple of weeks, been helping a friend do some remodeling in his house. We make quite a pair, I take the rule and measure the board and cut it, then he takes the board and nails it, then it's my turn again. You couldn't afford to hire us by the hour? Even if you could get us to do anything? And neither of us seem to be able to out lie the other one, but we both try...... We do enjoy each other's company though..!

It confirms that Horizons 2 has taken over for Galaxy 17.

That could explain why G10's 11720 signal is all over the place. If there allowing it to drift out of the box before correcting to save fuel this would account for the rotten performance.

Bring on a new sat at 123 W
