WELCOME to the real C-Band club Manny
I've got 3 of those 6 foot dishes (2 Fortec 1 Sadoun) and they rock.
So now you shouldnt have any issues getting MetroTV now 
Looks like 40.5W has a ton of circular polarity signals on it

all you need to do is put the dialectic plate down the throat of the LNB to get circular. If you dont have it, I've seen folks use like a credit card to make it work
If you take the cover off the LNB you'll see 2 sets of grooves on each side. That is where it goes to make it a circular polarity LNB

Congrats on your new dish it looks nice. Welcome to forum. I started out with a 6' prodelin pointed at G10r @123w to watch TVN ppv, and the outdoor channels. That was a few years ago. I have grown into a 10' sami.
Your hobby will grow! So will the dish size.
Have fun and enjoy.

Manuel, Did you get the unscrambled Televisa Networks mux on 43W? I ve been trying to no availability , well the trees are the culprit probably but wanted to confirm. Like turbosat said , now I want a 10 footer minimum!!!.
