Boy, life would have been a little easier on me if there was a good source for accurate data in terms of whats out there, whats STILL out there, and at what frequency. I know this is the nature of the beast, but I would think one website over another has gotten a better reputation for more updated accuracy??!!
I will reference BYU TV @ 89w as an example.
FTALIST.COM - It is a simple, direct to the point layout of FTA stuff on KU band. BYU - wrong freq!
SATBEAMS.COM I love the layout of this www. I can filter on just about every option to quickly show me what I am capable of pulling in. But, it goes through all the trouble of allowing you too see all the foot prints in another location, but then on the channel listing, it does NOT show you which foot print the channel uses. BYU - wrong freq!
which brings me to ...
LYNGSAT.COM which i had to reference, because that shows you which footprint beam is used on each transponder. BYU - correct freq.
Then there is....
SATHINT.COM - Not as easy to navigate, hard to jump from one sat to another, and could use better filtering. But...... Seems to have the most up to date info... But, might have been just timing and situation.
BYU - correct freq.
So, with all that. Are their other WWW out there? Which one do YOU find to be the most accurate and up to date? Is there just no one stop shopping place?
