    I can't even make out the numbers



    In my experience the former maps were accurate and you could at least see the letters and numbers

    Actually, I'm noticing he no longer hosts the maps himself. A sampling of a few birds sent me to the owners website, one SES, one Intelsat. I'd guess he is trying to save bandwidth costs, to the users detriment, of course.

    What bird were you looking at there?

    These beam maps are the ones published by the satellite owners.

    Ex:
    Intelsat Global Telecommunications Satellite Network

    That's 89 Ku Band, I barely get beam here in Central Mex. I'm not that lucky on 87, 91 where all those sweet sports feeds are , 99, 103 and 125

    John,

    Try Satbeams.com instead, I think you will appreciate it once you become accustomed to the format and navigation. Their maps are "interactive" and you can zoom in/zoom out and paneast/west/north and south. You can even dial them in down to the city level and beyond. Very nice!

    It is all that I use now.
