SATCO DX Satellite Chart Update 27 May - 2 June

The top story last week was a "new satellite" at 36E!
It seems to be GALS 2, which apparently has moved from 71E.

Two TV channels are transmitting there:
ACT on 12,168 R, PAL
NTV on 11,835 R, SECAM

One contributor wrote:
"According to info from Moscow, GALS (2?) was promised to be taken to its
new position at 36E. Today (Tuesday), the two transponders began
functioning. Signal is very powerful in Estonia, about 50dBW or more."

The satellite have also been reported by contributors in
Denmark and Sweden. It seems to have a very narrow beam.
