Hotbird 7A has been testing at 9.8 degrees east for a while now, but the Lyngsat tracker (http://www.lyngsat.com/tracker/hb7a.html) currently has it at 9.95E.

Maybe it's starting its slide over to 13.0E ready for operational use?

About time the damn thing was shifted to 13E. Its due to start replacing Hottie 1 on the 20th April at 0100UTC.
