Re: Weather At Wild Blue NOCs? said by WBBeam28 :
I fired up Google Earth to see if they had hires imagery of Syracuse, and, by dingey, they do! I pasted the address given above, and got a 15cm resolution image of the gateway address -- I've attached it here.
The three dots in the center of the image are probably satellite dishes -- you can get an idea of the scale by the car on the road to the right. The Google Earth images of the Syracuse area are about 3 years old. I am originally from Syracuse and have family there. I have a brother that lives a couple of blocks north of this site. I have just talked to him recently and he told me that 2 large satellite dishes have gone up sometime in the last 12 months. It wasn't exactly clear but I think he said a building went up with them. The way he sounded, this all went up in the open area shown in the image. I'll have to ckeck it out when I go back up there in July. -- SRS Earthlink Satmex5 1050, DW ver. 4.2.1.10, P4 3.2 Ghz Host, P4 2.4 Ghz client |

 | I live near that site and those images are old and were taken before the site was installed. There are now dishes and a building at that site. |

For those of you familiar with IWIN - the site is due to be discontinued in place of the link I just mentioned.

Since Wildblue Uncensored is no longer responding, I am posting the spot beam map for Wildblue-1 here.
