Nomen Nescios had to enter another nearby bulding to shoot this video showing the butts of the station. From left: three dishes pointing 30° to 40 degrees east & the c band dish [14°west]
Background: orthodox church on the premises of the #Russki embassy. Iconic!
Right: Ku band transmitter dish [14° west] & Ku band #SIGINT dish [7° west]

9/more 'Russki #Relay And here is the eastward, non-motorized part of the station. The two dishes to the left are pointe to 35-40° east. On 36° is Ekspress AMU1 and on 40° Ekspress AM7. Both sats were built by Airbus Defence & Space, ironically, for the Russians. AMU1 was even a joint venture with Eutelsat 😎 Russki communication lines & TV propaganda originate from there, relayed via Vienna to Africa & elsewhere. More to come by tomorrow. https://www.golem.de/news/satellitenspionage-eine-relaisstation-fuer-putins-afrikakorps-2604-207591.html
