"Moving" from MD to NYC

[par212]

I'm guessing where Par's relatives live that their local DMA spots are on 99 tp 1 ... what DMA would that be near NYC?

They get Baltimore locals.

Baltimore should be 103 tp 20 & 101 tps 18 & 26....correct, or ... ?

Harrisonburg, VA is on 99(s) TP1 which would be closer to the op in baltimore

I am still waiting to get the screen shots for the rest of 99s and 103s.

I got the screen shots and you guys said the NYC Locals are on the following.

99 s16 - signal 98
99 s20 - signal 100
103 s17 - signal 64

I tried to look on lyngsat and didn't see any NYC locals on 103. There were a lot of NY state locals but I didn't specifically see any NYC locals. Am I missing something? Also I wanted to make sure I have this correct, the screen shots are below, a signal of 99 and 100 on 99 seemed high being almost 200 miles from NYC??

99(s) TP16 spotbeam for you would be Roanoke so thats the spotbeam you're getting
99(s) TP20 spotbeam would be either Charlotte or NYC

103(s) TP17 there is one NY station and that is a PBS

Maybe, but I'm not so sure. The Roanoke beam covers western MD, but the NYC beam covers eastern and southern MD. That's where par212 is.I'm betting the reading he is getting is from NYC.

where are you guys finding the maps? I am looking at http://www.dbstalk.com/topic/184044-interactive-beam-footprint-library/

Are these still current?

According to these maps I am between the yellow and orange lines, so I would think (and hope) the NYC would be stronger.

Check the link at the top of the page marked satmaps.

I had done that a few times but was too lazy to install the plugin.

It seems according to those maps the 103 spot should be stronger than the 99. So I wonder if I am really getting the NY spot since it is so high....
