I see "occasional" and "free" draws me to it to have a look.
I wonder why they don't show the one at 82 on this chart.

Anyway, that's why I gave the sat value too. They seem to change designations by the hour it seems.

It is easier to find things wrong with that chart than things right.
I'd forget about that and use Lyngsat. Lyngsat has it's problems, but it's MUCH better than that chart.
Re things changing "by the hour", I know that they've been moving sats around a bit, and I'm not sure exactly when AMC9 went to 83, but I think it was about 3 years ago... not exactly that recent.
That page also designates DVB signals as being DCII among it's many many errors.


EDIT: Looks like AMC9 moved from 85 to 83 around Feb 2005 . Of course that doesn't mean anything about what the 4DTV might call that slot, but I still see 4DTV charts listing W9 as being AMC9.

Would be interesting to learn what all the signals on the C-band side of AMC9 are. I checked one, ie one at 4180, and it has an SR of 30000, exactly, yet I can't lock it, so it must be 8PSK or some data format.
