The Satellite Dish dead drop in The Cycle Frontier is found in the Comms Tower on the west side of the Bright Sands map. You’ll have to find a way into the compound though, which can be done either at one of the gates or through a hole in the fence.

Additionally, it is classified as a high-danger area, and has the chance to spawn some very nasty monsters that won’t think twice before taking you out, so you’ll need to watch your steps while you find the dead drop.

Once inside the Comms Tower location, head just underneath the Satellite Dish, and the dead drop will be right there in the corner next to some pipes. It is hidden in some grass though, so it won’t be immediately obvious from a distance. For reference, if you’re coming into the Comms Tower through the east side hole in the fence, the dead drop will be right in front of you.

One thing to watch out for though is that there is a second dead drop located within the Comms Tower that can be quite confusing if you don’t know exactly which one is which. Nothing worse than going through all the effort of getting there, only to put your quest items in the wrong place. If you follow our directions though you’re bound to find the correct one.
