After hearing media reports about BBC Persian's satellite signal being jammed, I swung my satellite dish to Hotbird 13.0E where BBC Persian has a feed(I live within the footprint of that satellite). And indeed - despite transponder having strong signal - the picture was breaking up and stuttering as if the signal was very bad. Note the transponder strength on signal meter showing strong signal.
This video was recorded to document the Iran's pathetic attempts to block western information on satellite, no copyright infringement is intended.
Technical details of reception: 78 cm offset antenna; Maximum S-1000M FTA receiver, transponder 11117V on Hotbird satellite, received in Estonia.
