Translated from the original Spanish article. After successfully completing all relevant procedures the new Egyptian company's satellite activates the first transponder but for the moment has been no channels activated. This is expected to occur imminently at this orbital position after being launched into space in early last August. As soon as the transponder is turned on the 11,729-H MHz frequency with an excellent reception in the westernmost part of Europe. The Nilesat 201 has the mission to replace the old Nilesat 101. The Nilesat 201 is the third satellite for the Egyptian operator entrusted to Arianespace and to offer TV service in North Africa, Middle East and the Persian Gulf during its 15 years of life through the orbital position of 7 degrees West, where they will continue to operate the Nilesat 102 Atlantic Bird and 4A, the latter leased to Eutelsat. It is equipped with 24 Ku-band transponders and four Ka-band |
