Attached are PDF documents covering the 101, 110 and 119 Satellites:
A listing by Transponder, showing assigned Channels
A listing by Channel, showing the source TransponderThe documents are fully unprotected so you may copy and use the data as you wish.

The 99 and 103 Sat transponders are still not included at this time, but some very sharp folks are working to acquire the data stream for the new Ka sats.

.5/17 to 6/28: 918 reads

Yes,

We are making progress on the Ka streaming data front. We have not given up. I understand the impatience that so many folks feel, but it is a complex problem.

Just hang in. Please!

It takes unique PC hardware and software... please stay tuned....

It can be done manually with just a tivo. If you go to the satellite signal screen, it will be set on the transponder that corresponds to the channel that was displayed on the active tuner, immediately prior to entering the satellite signal screen. I have no way of knowing if a DVR+ operates in the same way, but maybe someone can try?

Looking at the MPEG2 HD channels on 110 and 119 I see only two channels on each transponder except for 110 TP 10 which has three. If that's correct has anyone checked to see what resolution and bitrate they're using since I would think they wouldn't need to do downrez if that's the case.

The data has been updated as of 5/17/08. Sorry, but we are still working to capture the new 99 and 103 sat data streams. They'll be published here just as soon as we can!

Thanks for the update gct. :)

Sorry if this is a silly question but are the HD and SD versions of a channel on the same transponder, or are they on the 99 and 103 data streams that are not listed yet?

I ask because I can catch channels (207, 278, 269) fine in SD but when trying to view them in HD I get a 771 error.

No, the SD versions are on SAT 101 and the HD versions are on SAT's 103c, 110, and 119.

What are your transponders signals those SAT's?

Ok, thanks. Chances are those channels must be on the 103c stream. All of my strengths are well below 50 on that SAT. 110 is fine with all 3 in the high 80s and none are below 75 on 119 except the blanks I get on transponders 25 and 31.

I get a 771 error when trying to tune 292 TDISHD and 621 MSGHD, and I always have. That is, TDISHD has given the error since it was launched, and MSGHD has every time I tried it (8 or so times) since early this year. It's just these two channels -- no problem with other HD channels or with the SD versions TDIS and MSG. I think the problem with TDISHD might be general to Hawaii. I did call this in to D* a couple of months ago, and now I'm thinking of pursuing it. Is there any particular transponder strength I should look at?

In answer to many questions, here are links to Lyngsat.com for information on the DIRECTV channels from the 99 West (Spaceway 2) and 103 West (Spaceway 1 and DIRECTV-10) satellites. These are not transponder maps; but you will be able to determine what channels are provided by what satellites.

For 99 West (http://www.lyngsat.com/packages/directvusa99.html)

For 103 West (http://www.lyngsat.com/packages/directvusa103.html)
