Hi! I`m located in Mexico City I can get Tp. 12 and 18 from 110. Those are supposed to be spot beams that can't reach this far south. So does this mean I can get the channels on those transponders? If so, how can I know which spot beams are the ones I'm getting? You're input is appreciated!

Thanks.

The closest on TP 12 is Houston, the closest on TP 18 is Arkansas.
Are you sure you are getting E10 at 110°?

Yes, I'm pretty sure on tp 12 I have 100 of signal and on tp 18 101. I know it's strange, but that's what the receiver is showing.

Didn't one of the new satellites have a spot beam (or two) aimed at Mexico (as well as Cuba)?
