Help with ANIK F1R

[mandan]

I'm seriously thinking about buying a GEOSATpro microHD so I can get some Canadian channels from Anik F1R. Has anyone tried Anik F1R? Just curious to hear what is currently available.

Thanks,

Jon

Hey, welcome to Sat Guys!! There's a fair amount of stuff on that satellite on the Cband side. Ku side, not so much and they're 4.2.2 which a Micro won't do. You can go to this link and see the Cband stuff but keep in mind that you're "likely" going to have to have a LARGE Cband dish to receive that stuff. http://www.satelliteguys.us/thelist/index.php?page=C+107+Anik+F1R

What channel's. I think the CBC channels are not in the clear anymore.
