Basic Directv - which satellite?

[jags1]

I've noticed that Directv has 4 or 5 birds right around 101w. Which satellite actually is used for Directv's basic service when you use an old style dish with just a single LNBF?

101W is the "core" satellite

101W is the "core" satellite

So it would be the DirecTV 4S/8 as listed at LyngSat?
