Ive looked and looked, so let me apologize in advance for being a nimrod.
But where can you find the JPG maps of the spotbeam coverage area's?
Thank You.

These are the spot beam centers for 129W:

This is the basic template for the 129W spotbeam maps. Substitute the spot beam number of interest for the 44 to get the map for that beam:

There are not nice maps like the above for spot beams for the other sats. Here's a link to a thread where this was previously asked and responded to:

Half of the beam is in New Mexico, yet those of us in Teller County and northern El Paso county are on the fringe.

Those NM DMAs have to be covered also. Spot beams cover more than one DMA. Did you actually check the signal strength for Transponder 2 on 129W? That's the transponder that I think the CS DMA will be on. The beams are likely a bit larger than the picture.
