Footprint is only part of the equation. As with any satellite, you will need a large enough dish. I received most of the C-band channels with a 7.5 foot dish here in Virginia, but several more with the 10 footer. For example, the Honduras mux at 3950 /V / 11250 is borderline even with the 10 footer. (Lots of Spanish music videos on this mux)
117W C-band has tons of Spanish programming. Little if any English.
117W KU has little to offer except for occasional feeds.

I just realized that the previous post was a bit misleading. When I said: "I received most of the C-band channels with the 7.5 dish..." I was referring ONLY to 117W.
There was quite a lot that I couldn't get across the arc. I wouldn't want to sound like I was endorsing any dish smaller than 10 foot for C-band.

at 116.7 KU, there are only 4 FTA channels on the KU band. One is a advert channel and has nothing worth watching. One is BYU, which is a religious channel. So, really there are only 2 channels with content. I won't mention those channels in this section.
I am using a 1.2m dish, and apparently can get more than armadillo_115

IBoston, I thought BYU ceased transmitting there. Is it still @ 12102 / H / 3703 ?
I blind scanned before I posted earlier... Maybe my Bud needs tweaking again.

Yes, its still there. It scans in as LatinAmerica, and I have it at 12106h3704.
Thanks IBoston.
Still no BYU here on either receiver. Not even a blip. I suspect some moisture in a connector or maybe the button hook shifted a bit. Something to check when I'm feeling better. Nothing missing around the arc that i care about so far.

I planning to bring a paying receiver from tigo ...75 cm is correct ...i have about 50 of this dishesJust to be clear: There is only ONE channel ITC on 117W KU at this time, Tigo Star. All it does is advertise Tigo Star programming. Feeds are rare.
Everything else is scrambled.
According to what I read, Globe Cast used a 75 cm (30") diameter dish?
