This section is specifically for discussion of the footprint maps. NO QUESTIONS about what channels are found on which satellite

Any off topic comments or questions will be removed

There's an error in BADR Ku band coverage map. While for my region it says 120cm dish, I can receive all channels by using 60cm dish.

There are errors on loads of maps - Astra 2D shouldnt be available anywhere outside northwestern Europe but we know thats a big fallacy

 

[BombedOne]

Yes I know about errors, but what is purpose of this section then? I thought coverage maps were created based on user reports.

 

[Analoguesat]

The footprint maps are the predicted or official coverage area as provided by the satellite operating companies.

Its a reference library of whats likely to be available in your area and at what signal strengths.

Enter location and it gives list of satellites and dish size; while it may not be 100% accurate, it is a decent starting guide.
