Satellite footprints are an excellent starting point, However there are many footprints that are equally inaccurate,, or incomplete, also additionally there are footprints that are mis leading on purpose.

Be carefull on relying on only the footprint- I recieve more than 500 channels with my 3.7 mrs that if i refered to the footprint would not exist.



Best regards
