Im also interested in Bell.
I live as far south as ft lauderdale Florida. Im very interested in their HD content.
Kusat and Canamsat says its spotty and they dont recomend it.
Any fellow floridians getting Bell HD??
Love to hear if its coming in loud and clear!
I'm across the alley from you in Fort Myers. As of today, and this can change if they shuffle transponders, I can pick up 90% of the HD channels. Mind you the signal strength is just in the 50's on some transponders, but they do come in.
The channels I am missing are
800 CTV-E
806 CTV-W
819 PBS-E
821 ABC-W
825 WGN
829 Vu PPV Banner channel, not sure if you can get PPV's since I never order them
838 SHW-HD
846 SNHD3 Sportsnet channel only used during certain games, and we're usually blacked out from them on the East coast
847 SENHD Ottawa Senators PPV
Not sure about the french channels, but as you can see, there is still a pretty decent amount of HD to be had here in SW Florida. That being said, I don't know if 100 miles east of here in your location would have fewer channels coming in. I know that only 100 miles north of me near Tampa, I would get all the transponders, so we are right on the cusp.
The other recommendations are good, if you are going to get it, do a 2 dish setup, and make the 82 dish at least a 24".
