EUMETCast Reception at Prescot, Merseyside

 

Station Performance Monitoring with MRTG

This page displays the MRTG monitoring of EUMETCast reception at this station. Data is received from the Hotbird 13G satellite (positioned at 13° East) currently in summer 2026 using 4 transponders. The data is received here using a TBS 6906SE pcie card with 4 tuners (confusingly numbered 0 to 3!) installed in the computer "Atlas". This machine is also used at present to process the data, although this is likely to change imminently with another PC introduced for the software processing functions. 

Satellite reception is via a Triax TD88 Dish using an Inverto Black Ultra Quad LNB. The computer "Atlas" has an Asus Prime X470-Pro motherboard, the CPU is an AMD Ryzen 5 2400G.

Basic and HVS-1 Services: Tuner 0 (receiving Transponder 13G 1, 11219.25Mhz Horizontal.)
