Some interesting transponder removals:
Comparing ASTRA 13-01-2016 12 59.txt and ASTRA 13-01-2016 17 25.txt
Lost:
11493.75 H 22000 3/4 DVB-S QPSK 028.2E :TSID = 2091
12031.50 H 27500 2/3 DVB-S QPSK 028.2E :TSID = 2017
As far as I know 11493.75 H has never been active but these tests were listed in the ASTRA SDT as being on it:
************************ DELETED ************************
SERVICE NAME TYPE EPGID SID TSID ONID FREQ.P ENC EIT PROVIDER BOUQUETS LCN

6803 1 1023 6803 2091 2 11494H 0 1 BSkyB 000000000000011 1006
11450 - 11700 MHz was and still is, I believe, Eutelsat territory.
Maybe the TSID needs fixing?
12031.50 H on the other hand is most certainly active but was, according to the ASTRA SDT, void of services.
In fact, this transponder carries another Network:
networkName = Tp17 ASTRA 2A
networkID = 0002
number of multiplexes = 1
12031.50 V 27500 2/3 DVB-S QPSK 0.35 028.2E
original_network_id = 0x0002 = 2
transport_stream_id = 0x07E1 = 2017

QVC_Beauty 1 1C41 0 4 0 QVC
Box Nation HD 1 1C82 0 4 0 Harmonic
FreesatCommonC 12 1C83 0 4 0 Freesat
FreesatCommonC has the Freesat streams as its payload.
The Freesat streams are not mapped to any of the other services.
Could this be a test? I was thinking how awkward it is that every Freesat service seemingly has to have the Freesat streams mapped to it when all that should be required is that they are present on the transponder and can be easily found as is the case here.

It was bad enough that extra format spaces were stripped.Now extra linefeeds, inserted for readability, are stripped.And is it beyond the wit of man to filter messages from known email addresses rather than apply a blanket CAPTCHA?Unacceptable.

Briantist: I see. Two of my recent messages show US as location. If it happens again I'll check my IP number and maybe figure out what's happening.
