    Google Lyngsat and you can view what is on the different Birds... The Fortec also has a listing of Satellites, already built in, so all you have to do is make sure you have set each bird up with the right specs, and then scan!!!

    Ref,

    You're right the Viewsat library of satellites, while pretty good, is hardly complete. I've been hand-loading satellite info, transponders, etc. and have added a bunch--mostly TV "live shots" and other feeds. I don't have a list exactly; I've just been using Lyngsat.com and a few other sources. If a get a few moments (), I may try and download the channel management software from Viewsat, but so far I've just been punching things in by the remote.

    Good luck,
    Bob
