My 10 footer just moves up to 83W so I'm trying to id sat locations with this old 7 footer I have just refurbished so I was wondering what are some strong signals for the following birds:

72W

61W

58W

55.5W

50W

Thanks!

58W fr 4041 h sr 26590

55.5W fr4098 H sr 5347

72W fr 3959 v sr 4167

61W fr 4174 h sr 3330

I am still scanning 50

checking to see how your foot print is on these sats

thanks panhandler, this will come handy when I change my feedhorn and LNB cause I tested with a chaparral and dmx211 13k lnb and Im not getting a quality signal

Im revisting this thread because I just bought a servo motor for my 7ft BUD so Id like to know what tps are currently active on 61, 55.5, 45 and 43, (58W I get great, pretty much every channel) but for some reason Im not locating those 4 sats with the TP suggestions y'all posted 2 months ago, maybe those channels are no longer up there?
