Must have backhaul and wild feeds satellites

[zinco]

Hello,

What are the must-have backhaul and wild feeds Ku-band satellites? I think AMC9 is one of them. What else?

I find the whole arc from 58°W to 97°W busy with feeds. 72°W-AMC 6 is busy with TWC feeds, (the "Strom Chasers" and more recently the Hurricane reporters feeds, etc) 91°W-G 17 for a lot of misc. feeds. West of 97°W, for me, seems quieter, but not barren.

72, 74, and 91 are the satellites that I seem to go to the most. AMC9 (83) does have some, but not a lot (and not as many as the three I listed).

Thanks for the replies. I'll try them and pick 2. Now I need more brackets/LNBs

BTW, when I do a Blindscan, does that add new TPs to my existing Sat TP list or it just scan whatever TPs are already saved in my box?

Blindscan adds tp's that it finds to the list, then scans ALL the tp's in the list. Some add tp to list and scan it immediately.
