EchoStar 6 at 72.7°
Nimiq 5 at 72.7°The following is a “guesstimate” of EchoStar 4's coverage from 77° before it was re-aimed to serve the US.
77° is a Mexican satellite location which has been granted authority to broadcast to the US.
These pictures show the projected footprint of EchoStar 11 at 110° West Longitude.
The first picture shows the ConUS view. The bottom left shows the
Caribbean, and the bottom right shows the Alaska/Hawaii view.

The spot beam numbers are different than the maps linked at the bottom of the page, but they show a rough area where the signal is available from each spot beam for E*7, 8 and R1.
The current Ciel II satellite resolved reception problems in the Pacific northwest, southern Texas, and most of Florida. Customers in the NE states should expect reception problems and should instead be on Eastern Arc.

The following map was sent to the EchoStar Knowledge Base via e-mail. The author of the e-mail requested the map be included on this page:
EchoStar 5 was replaced at 129° by Ciel II in February 2009, this map is now only of historical value. The shaded areas map indicate where a Dish 1000 could not be used. Alaska, Hawaii, Puerto Rico and the US Virgin Islands are not shaded, but it is assumed this was an oversight. Click on the map to see full sized map.
Taken from EchoStar's FCC filing requesting permission to move EchoStar 5 from 129° to 148°. Click for larger view.
