Hey guys, last year at one of the shows there was a picture of dish networks satellites and which sat. would do what (including echo x) does anyone know where that picture went? I seem to have lost it and cant find it!
BFG said:I can show you the thread, but the picture is no longer relevant and dish has changed plans again, so no sense in letting you look at it

Jordan420 said:If there is an "S" in the transponder column it means it on a spot beam.
At the bottom of the chart there are footnotes explaining the abeverations in the chart
taken from tyhe footnotes
"What does the "S" mean in the transponder column?
In order to maximize space on the satellites and uplink as many stations as possible, Dish has launched and put into service Spot Beam satellites. These allow a single transponder to be reused in tightly focused beams aimed at certain parts of the country instead of sending one channel nation wide. To see maps of the current spot beam satellites click HERE. Or you can also view the mirror of that page here on the EKB"
Heer is the link to the sats
