Hi
I fit out yachts with Seatel satellite dishes and I am after foot prints for Directv la, I can only find very basic footprints I.E from seatel and KVH.
We have been told by them that only certain channels can be received in certain areas, if this is the case then I am sure there should be more than 1 footprint.
Lyngsat just list the freq and other settings, they are the only ones on that bird that are using Left and Right hand pol.
they seem very reluctant to send out information.
 
Hello,
as far as i know dorect tv can not be received here in europe.
i did her of someone that received 1 or 2 channels from the states. but he had a 4 meter dish and was in tenna reef.

hello again,
if you are fitting this system and the boat will be in the america area or in south america then direct tv latin america or direct tv usa will work in that area.
if you are using this in europe it will not work at all.
another option is spanish tv service on 30 west.
if you have a decoder and paying for the service there is a lot of tv programs there some in english and spanish.
we are able to receive this in naples with a 60 to 80 cm dish.

Hi Ralph

thanks for the reply.
this is for vessels only in the caribean, all I am after are foot prints cos I have been told that deoending on where they are depends on what channels you can get, I can only fined 1 foot print map.
 
You could try the following site, which seems to show comprehensive USA footprints

Your going to need a subscription to DTV to get anything from their birds, and one of their receivers as they use DSS instead of DBS modulation, 99% of the FTA receivers cant pick up this format.

Also the satellites for DTV are 72W, 99W, 101W, 103W (Ka band HD) 110W and 119W, and the only transponders you might get in the Caribbean are the CONUS beams, plus your going to need a good sized dish to get them as most of the lower part of Caribbean is outside the coverage for those satellites
