    Default Working Transponder

    Can someone give me a working Transponder for 91 and 82 ? I'm having problems switching from DN to Bev.
    I'm not sure if it makes a difference on my Dreamlink T5 it says Nimiq 1 vs the newer Nimiq 6, 91 w ?

    I just can't seem to find the birds and I have been doing this for years !

    THANKS !!

    Name shouldn't matter. Only scan in what you are pointed at via you settings are correct...freq, symbol rate etc. Could try 12399 or 12457/82 and 12559/91. I will add recently I have noticed that with elevation I've had to add about 3. In other words if dishpointer shows elevation for a certain bird example 42.7 I've had to move up to about 46 for a good signal. Seen this with various sizes. Up to you and your call.

    One other thing...For good reception in the US (if your in the US) on BEV satellites you need to be no further South then 200 miles from the US Canadian border, some places it's a bit more, others it's a bit less.

    Here are some foot print maps for 82 and 91, zoom into your location to see what may be going on if you cant find the satellites.

    This one is for 82W

    And this one is for 91W
