OTHER What's possible to receive with Ku-band in Arizona?

Hello, I found this link: Free TV from United States - LyngSat But I see one of those is 152 degrees west! That's almost pointing the dish directly west. Are those really reachable? I have a 3' dish.

First off, I believe that list is channels that originate from the United States, not necessarily ones receivable from the United States.

Second, the position is the orbital location of the satellite, not the azimuth of your dish. You'd have to put each satellite's location into a dish aiming calculator to get the azimuth and elevation for your location.

Well, the question was more about reachability. Can it be reached with reasonable effort?

www.satbeams.com Will give you map to pin point your location and shows footprint and dish size for your area to pick up signal. Good luck to you.

I would say 129 would be the western limit at your location.

Yep

I don't see any satellite listed on Lyngsat at 152W. Are you sure it's not 152 EAST? Some areas of California can get 166 E but not much lower than that.

180e is no problem to pick up on a primestar dish.
