I need confirmation that the new slimline dish will pick up all satellites between 72w and 119w. I believe there are currently 6 satellites (72,99,101,103,110,119), is this correct? I live in SC and before the slimline came out we were required to have two separate dishes to pick up the locals on 72w. Now with the slimline, supposedly we now only need the one dish to pick up all the channels. I got this info from a DTV rep on the phone. Thanks.

I just confirmed your info with another DTV rep that actually knew what she was talking about this time. I appreciate your quick response though. I still need the new dish for HD, so I will just have to use my old dish for the 72 satellite. Hopefully they will move the locals off the 72 soon. Thanks again.

You'll still need the 72.5 to recieve the SD locals that don't have an HD simulcast. All HD locals are on the 99 and 103.
Per this lookup tool, 50.2 elevation and 176.6 azimuth (relative to magnetic north, not true north).
