NEED A BOOMING TP

[MikeinBaja]

I know, I know - mini-buds don't work - they are toys - but I'm playing with one again anyway . What a hillbilly rig it's starting to look like!

What's the hottest, strongest, BOOMINGest TP in SD for the west coast (San Diego)? I can cleanly see the arc from 72 to over 140 and I'm going to pull out the old CS6000 and little TV from the shed for the test.

If it isn't published, please PM.

Rig isn't quite ready to fire up yet, but it's getting very close.

You didn't say whether you were actually looking for C or Ku but 91W has some BOOMING signals on it on my 10 footer, ie, 100% and I'm on the East coast. There's a couple of other places to find strong TPs, one of which can be found in "The List". The other is a post put up by Ice that lists STRONG Ku TPs across the arc. Search will find that for ya. ;-)

I always found the Sports TPs on 91west to be very strong
3820 & 3840

Since I have it bookmarked, I'd start out with an old list Linuxman made when he was experimenting with a 1 meter dish:

- satellite list for 1m dish

Thanks. My KU rig is perfect and tracks the arc like a sidewinder missle. Posted in the C section looking for C info. I'll try a generic TP on G17.

Thank you oh wise green one. I remember that thread now - GREAT stuff in there!

PS - love the hat!

I would look at the threads anole suggested. Go for 91W first that will probably be your strongest.
