Echostar 12 61.5W Spot Beams

Interesting. Assuming the read line is thee boundary of being receivable, it would seem like Clinton County might be the only real problem. I gather it's not. Wonder if the beam is not performing to spec.

Interesting, too, that Pensacola doesn't have problems.

I can explain that one about Pensacola. On that beam is Jackson, MS and Mobile, AL(Pensacola), I receive a much higher signal from the transponder that contains Mobile than Jackson. So they have the Mobile, AL transponder cranked up a little more than the Jackson TP so they can cover that area.

These maps are all approximate so things can vary.

I put a few more beam maps up and mapped their locals to them.

I'm trying to figure out a few markets but the satellite beam transponder map is not matching the market location and the transponder they are currently on. I suspect Dish did some trickery with the beams since they are not utilizing the beams 100% since they do not have enough uplink centers dedicated to 61.5.
