Default Spot Beam Questions

Hi....I'm a newbie here so hopefully someone can help me out.


Not knowing much about spot beams/coverage I'll leave it up to you guys.

I'm from Northern Vermont (basically on the US/Canada border) and will be camping this weekend in Central PA.

I was hoping to take my Directv receiver with me and watch some football games in PA. The only spot beam map I found looks as though I would be under spot beam 21 (as spot beams 1 and 12 don't encompass northern VT).

It also looks like spot beam 21 reaches as far south as Maryland/Virginia. My question is will I be able to receive my VT locals in PA as long as i'm within the Spot Beam 21 coverage area?

For some reason, the image you attached is tiny. Can you repost?
