E* has been unable to get any more that 4 HD-LIL on any transponder.
Simple math says they need the equivilant of 20 additional transponders to go with the above list.
So, again, looking at your chart, I don't see the 20 additional transponders. If they pull some on 61.5W and put them in spotbeam mode, the question is will they still have enough for the nationals on 61.5 they already have that are duplicated on 129W.
So again, I can't see any room at all available where you state there is plenty of capacity left.
Could you please explain where these 20 HD LILs Markets are going and where all this extra capacity is?
