SUPER BUDDY LOCK STATUS W WILD BLUE

[satmaster35]

I heard the super buddy will no longer acheive locked status for Wild Blue Satellites has anyone had this happened yet. So far mine works for the beams in Oregon, but will be working in Nevada soon and dont want to be caught and stuck at a job.

My understanding is the beams are changing the way data is transmitted and when they do, the SB will not show lock, but will still show signal strength. I have yet to experience this, but assume that it should be no big deal as I have not seen the SB show signal for any other sat when looking for a WB???

so I can still read the right side once the the change happens it just wont say locked anymore?

That is my understanding.......I have not yet verified that (my beam has not changed yet).
