Here is what I ave scanned in, did I miss any? Thanks!

IA5,G10,AMC-1, AMC-2, AMC3, AMC-4, AMC-5,AMC-6,AMC-9,AMC-16,G-11,G13,G3,IA6,IA7,SATMEX5,SBS6,IA8,SATMEX6.

Any that I missed?
 
I would scan the NIMIQs and Echostars when you have time (because it takes some time), FTA only. You never know what might be in the clear...

He only has a KU LNB on right now.

IA5,G10,AMC-1, AMC-2, AMC3, AMC-4, AMC-5,AMC-6,AMC-9,AMC-16,G-11,G13,G3,IA6,IA7,SATMEX5,SBS6,IA8,SATMEX6.
so you got 72, 74, 79, 83, 85, 87, 89, 91, 93, 95, 97, 101, 103, 105, 113, 116.8, 123, 127, 129 so far. I know you did 121 (Echo 9) because you mentioned the "superdish 121" screen

Really all that's left between those are the DBS slots (as Tron noted) and AnikF1, AnikF2 (107.3, 111.1) and G4/G16 (99). G4 has 5 scrambled channels on it and AnikF1/F2 we already mentioned before
 
Thank! I will scan those and see what I come up with :) I wish I had a window that faced my setup so I could watch the motor move :) Maybe I could install a security camera to watch it - hehe :)
 
Maybe try to get the DBS eventually if you get an lnb that can do it...

Also, you might try for hispasat at 30w - should be able to get there using 1.2 instead of usals. I got there by going to the max on the motor's usals, which was 33w, saved that in 1.2, and then went about 7 clicks from there in 1.2.

If you can get 30w - I'm guessing you can since you are basically due north of me by one state (not sure if footprint reaches that far north?...it would be worth trying for, and I think it does reach up there since there's others up north too...), you can try for 43w - which I don't think has any 24/7 tps, and some of the atlantic birds.

Thanks! I will go back and hit the birds I missed :). I am anxious to start looking for news feeds. Seems my whole family likes them :)
