My Temp:
LS3044, Powers 1020, Enhancer 0002, other novices. Plus TKM.
I alternate between Dant and Endor, depending on how long I plan to play. >2hrs, I head to Endor, <2hrs, I head to Dant. I might also switch to Endor if I can't find a decent solo group. I tend to get 150-200K and hour on Endor, and about 150K and hour on Dant. I much prefer the Endor grind, as I hate refreshing mission terms, but my house is on Dant, and it's nice to be able to just drop a house and log, or go to the bathroom if you need to.
The previous list of what to grind on Endor is pretty good. Basically everything that cons red, and most that con yellow will give you XP worth the kill time. I generally head S, SW, or SE 4000km from the Smuggler Outpost, then just run E-W back and forth until I'm done. Lots of stuff on Endor bleeds, or diseases, so unless you have a way to deal with this, be careful. And be VERY wary of merek lairs. The last spawn from them will come about 6 at once, and gank you if you're not expecting it. Even knowing it's coming, and with TKM and synthsteak, I still find myself burstrunning and popping spices once in a while. There are few NPCs on Endor. I usually only see AT-STs and stormies once in a while, and that's not that often.

Do a Ctrl-V on Dantooine on Scylla, and it's wall-to-wall visibility just waiting to happen.

Well if you're working on Novice Sabers, Coronet's Meatlumps are good.

Yeah, not only meatlumps are good but I heard something of "DWB" and I think... Black Sun guys? These are PERFECT for novice LS grind.
No really, the "hot" spots are different for everyone. Your main criteria of picking a spot for grind is the actual safety and low traffic (meaning low population). If you are low level try Endor.

The FAQ has the info you need, sorry for the mess of STICKY posts.....
Other than the info in the FAQ, just go kill anything that moves, gives good XP, and doesn't kill you.....this is no different than any other combat prof to grind
