[QUOTE="Vipersan, post: 804727, member: 325666"] Hi Bigote..and a warm welcome to the forum. There are effectively 2 beams from 55W in C band .. The larger spread stronger beam is directed over the USA ...and a second elongated and weaker beam to Hispanic Europe ... Hence the reason UK feed hunters with a big enough dish in the UK have a chance .. I was the one who posted up the details on Lyngsat ...and I had no problems locking it on the European beam ..with a 2m dish.. Sorry I cannot comment on the beam in the US ..but I would have expected it to be primarily aimed for South American users ..and as such I wouldn't expect you would have problems.. The same 2 beam rule also applies to 58 West.. As a general rule most signals on both satellites are dual illuminated on both beams. rgds VS [/QUOTE]
