Update..... These transponders continue to be affected. We will provide an update when the situation has been resolved.

12117 is experiencing the lowest quality readings and BERs have been decreasing in the Southwest during the past 24 hours.
 
Update: Extensive testing has been performed by Intelsat and the earlier problems with co-satellite interference have been minimized.

If you are continuing to experience reduced quality it could be related to the beam width and/or misalignment of your dish. Smaller dishes with beamwidths greater than 2 degrees and reduce off-axis attenuation will continue to experience interference. Dish aiming of dishes with wider beamwidths is extremely critical to minimize the interference between the neighboring birds.
