Anyone have some tips as to the best Ku satellites for feeds? I have been using 91W Ku and a there are a good amount of feeds there, especially during the week.

What kind of feeds do you want to see? Baseball, football, opera, news? I went to Rick's site and looked at tons of old feed reports. I learned what companies use what satellites. I compiled a list of transponders commonly used for football feeds and created a special list of sats for football feeds. I will scan my list quickly for a game I want to see before going thru each satellite and blind scanning. The game could be over before you scan them all 
I think 85W usually has a lot of sports. 99W has a lot of news, but many of its feeds are weak, barely receivable on a 90cm dish. 72W used to have a lot of sports, but I've been seeing a lot less lately, and a lot of them have gone to DVB-S2 so are also weaker on a consumer-sized dish.
I think AMC-16 and G-17 bird are the best, however If you are west coast sport feed fan it would be G-18 123*w same goes for 105*w AKA Macy bird. You get what you get!
