15W

It has moved to ku band on the 15w bird. It was formerly on 40.5w c band. It carries some excellent programming, including the C-SPAN feeds. I'm afraid to drive my dish down to 15w or it may flop. Since I have two 12 footers, I will swap the actuator on one dish from west to east. Something to consider if you are not on the east coast and want to view some of these atlantic birds, assuming they are above the horizon for you. Been a while since I've dabbled with Telstar 12, but remember msnbc was itc and lots of good feeds of US programs like late shows and sports being downlinked to Europe on that bird.
