Looked at Panamsat 9 302.0E - 58.0 W and according to their dish track app. this is the results. ZIP 85901 "Airport = SOW"

Likely what I would like to see is some DW maybe some BBC / Sky and or possible something from France or such depending what is available. Even if I do not understand some languages anything is better than what a I have now.
Heck maybe even some channels from Florida with some nice beaches / maybe clothed women , beautifull buildings ??? Beautifull land.
The stuff they show me here and the 10mj. pine trees does not fly my kite .
The small town / sticks I am in now does not promote "TV satisfaction" for a lack of a better word.
I will even watch paint dry on satellite. LOL
This 6 min.s of show + 24 min.s of medicine adds just drives me crazy and DW webcast is blocked via the internet ??
Acording to satcodx site I should be able to see zones 6 7 8 9 , with 6 and 9 only some of them as some is behind the horizon. Not really bothered about zones 6 and 7.
9 Anything from W35+ deg is apparently above my horizon.

One suggestion.... rather than (or in addition to) SatcoDX, you might try using the Lyngsat web page, ie
North & South America - LyngSat . Most here like Lyngsat better. It is a bit more user friendly. Also, although neither Lyngsat nor SatcoDX is particularly up to date, Lyngsat is generally better than SatcoDX. If some new channel pops up you might find it on Lyngsat in days or weeks, but it probably won't appear in SatcoDX for 6 to 12 months, or more. Both tend to retain obsolete things a bit too long.
