How they get a spotbeat to completely cover the Utah market, since it covers the entire state and half of Nevada and parts of 2 other states!?
I'm sure it wasn't too hard too do. Covering only a very small area (couple of farms to a 1/4 state) is probably more complicated than a middle to large area (1/2 state or several).
But I think the final adjustments are done whenever there is a space shuttle flight. You may notice that Charlie is always on vacation then, and I think he does a space walk to do all the final adjusting on the beams.
Here's a link for 119; notice one spotbeam that covers the northeast, and a second one that covers the mid-Atlantic states.
