If you need a 1.8m dish to receive the 119 DISHNET sat in Edmonton, what size dish do you need to receive all transponders for Dave's sats?

My wife is Mexican as well, so is the 119 sat as strong as 101? or weaker than the main one up north?

Thanks again.

I'm at about the fifieth parallel and the 119 comes in great here, just a tiny bit weaker than the 101. this with an elliptical dish.

I'm around the 52nd and 119 fades at night here.it is a little weaker than dtv. 110 comes in fine with a 18" dish. the eliptical dtv 3-way is fairly useless here for 119. I use a 30" for my 119 and would use a 1.8m if i had one. Have tried the dish 500 2-way and it is useable but not as good.on 119. Edmonton being about 53rd reception could be sketchy depending on elevation also.
