IntelSat 17 at 66 East

Intelsat 17 66 East.

This satellite is relatively weaker compared to other satellites of this era. Earlier people from Middle East were happy when the news spread that channels from Insat 2E located at 83.0 East will move to Intelsat 17 located at 66 East. But from seeing posts in forums it is understood that signal is not as strong as they had expected.

Below is the list of channels I received from Intelsat 17. Credits to Admin of www.dthhelp.com for providing me the channel list in a nice format. I have added SNR which I managed to get. I have included that to help people to compare.
