Nope, as long as you already have the 5LNB dish (side car/slimline). D11 is going to the same slot as Spaceway 2 is already at, 99 degrees.

I'm just sitting here reading through this thread and i ponder.... Why does anyone think any delay in D11 launch by Sea Launch would have ANY effect on AMC-14 Launch by International Launch Services launching from the freaking Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan. (Very Nice....) Its 2 companies if D11 delays why wouldn't ILS launch when ready?

BTW the blog for AMC-14

I wonder if the launch may be delayed due to debris from the satellite we just blew up? I would have thought that they would have let out to sea by now, with the launch date only ten days out.
