Hi ginger,
I can't find the details of that particular channel, but for a lot of channels on 5E, including Viasat sports, you will probably need a 1.5M dish. You should be able to pick up some Ukrainian channels, to allign your dish, 11766 H 27500 3/4.
For more details try:

My System: Sky UK. FTA analogue & digital satellite from 6 fixed dishes (5E/7E/9E/10E/13E/16E/ 19E/23E/28E) Pace MSS100, Echostar IP3000VA, Technomate TM-1000D, Dreambox 7020S

Seeing as VS Sport 3 is transmitted in Videoguard, unless you have a subscription you cant watch it anyway!

I can JUST get Sirius 3 channels if the weather is fine on a 1.2m dish in Galashiels. However, any thick cloud and the signals disappear.
