I have put in SBS6 since I last posted but had no idea a 30W satellite was obtainable. Looks like I have a lot more to put in. I have a good view of eastern sky, but my SG2100 may hit a limit, not sure yet.

I have just started to notice that some have an LNBF that picks up linear and circular signals. I may upgrade to that later, but now concentrating on just getting a good lock on signals on the arc.

Thanks for your info

With a location of 82 you should be able to get down to 25 or so but if memory serves me right there are no US beams after 30.
