Astra 2G is the spot beam, & even this has overflow into the near continent.

Let's hope that this isn't an excuse for something more ominous as channels in difficulty (in fact all businesses) normally try to keep everything looking fine until the last possible moment.
KIC were operating without a backup provider, probably due to the initial setup costs. Channels change providers all the time but it is never usually noticed at the customers end as the backup is used during changeover.
