Where it's Warm
Good news for Puerto Rico customers.

Directv is reorienting their Directv 5 satellite at 110W to provide improved service for Puerto Rico.

The 3 Directv transponders at 110W will increase Puerto Rico signal levels 400% (equivalent to mainland reception strengths).

I will update the SatMap for Directv 5 sometime in the next week or so.

Does anyone know if D* is actually broadcasting anything on these x-ponders now...& if so, what???
(Lyngsat just shows 1 barker channel on it now)
