Keep the data coming! It is really helping refine the maps.

The users post had all the even transponders instead of odd. We dont need those.

Keep the data coming! It is really helping refine the maps.

So, um, I know you said that the data had been lost for a while, but why exactly wasn't Dish required to keep it updated?

This was a good exercise. It appears that the 61.5 dish could use a little tweaking here as "normal" transponders are down a little since I added the dish in 12/08

Note those that I marked * are questionable. They don't always lock and take a long time to lock when they do. When locked they do say Echostar

0% or not locked on skipped transponders. Based on lyngsat they do not appear to be used, perhaps not licensed, by Dish.

On a side note, it seems that it will be a long time before Rochester NY gets HD LIL, where could I "move" to? Thanks for the assistance.
