SATELLITE DIRECTV D11 @99W
-DERIVED FOOTPRINTS-


These beam footprints are based on calculated D11 antenna deviations from their D12 counterparts.

These beams are not based on filed FCC documentation; at the time of the D11 filing, only four beam footprints were submitted.

SATELLITE DIRECTV D8 @101W
SATELLITE DIRECTV D8 @119W

The Beam Footprints for D8 are nominally affected with the re-location from 101W to 119W.
D8 @119W began service in November, 2020.

At 119W, D8 provides 11 NAT (49-States, CONUS) beams only as noted below.

There are two space stations assigned to this one physical satellite. Directv KU-79W and Directv RB-79W have the same S2861 call sign.
 
SATELLITE DIRECTV D11 @99W




The D11 FCC filing provided only the four Beam Footprints above.

However, D11 does provide a full complement of LIL Spot Beams. The D11 Spot Beams are all numbered just as the D12 Beams and provide a footprint north and east of their counterpart D12 Beams.

See the D11 Derived Beam Posting in this thread for all the D11-Derived Footprints.
