I wouldn't pay too much notice to the footprints - they have been around for ages and are very basic.

Better to take a look at a map with REAL reports of reception as it gives a better picture of the reality and includes anomalies such as side lobes and nulls that the 'official' map doesn't show. This one is for Astra 2F and is what is predicted for 2E
