Signals on the 99b

[putterboy]

GREETINGS, After reading Scott's post on the 103b ,transponder 11 activity, checked mine out .Getting 85 or so in western MA. In playing around, started seeing activity on 99b. Getting good readings (90's) on 8 transponders. I know they were not previously there. Any thoughts on this? thanks PS-We have no hd locals or hd rsn here.

Has someone been fermenting Maple syrup or is it last years Apple Jack, D11 won't be launched till at least December.

Just outside of Springfield, in Agawam, couple of miles from 6 flags. I wish it was some good hootch, still have readings on 6 transponders-slimline dish with h20. If its not there????????? thought 99b was used for spotbeams? Color me clueless!

Boba, think maybe you've had too much Lone Star, Pearl or Shiner's.

The 99b signals are coming from the recently launched satellite.

New York and Boston are both on 99b. That is the spot beam you are seeing there.

Thank you for the info Raoul I didn't know 99b was coming off the existing satellite I thought both Spaceways were "A" satellites and the "B" were D10 & D11.

Putterboy spent some time in Wilbraham home of Friendly Ice Cream at Western New England College. If it still exists many years ago.
