If you are in West, you can replaced your LNB for a Linear and get Galaxy 18 123.0W.
note that with a 18" it can't not work, but if you buy a new, choose a 36".

Many english channels and much old series, check with Lyngsat.

One of the newest FTA orbit is AMC-21 at 125W
Currently there is no foot print specs
However I think a 24" dish and a linear LNB can work on either 125W or 123W

Many American channels in clear and I expect more to populate on both 123W and 125W

You can get the 61.5 (east coast) or the 148 DN (west coast) sats..

justforhaha's: Can't you read? He is looking for English programming.
61.5w is mostly international programming.

Haha you are not able to get none of linear signal, so close your big mouth.

With your switch in a plastic container and your garbade bag on your dish stay away from serious threads

"I get 10 channels from Now on AMC 21 but many does not have sound."

AMC-21 is new
I expect many changes to follow

To many of yo not aware that yo can get American channels on 123W using a 24" dish and a linear LNB
I also expect more channels to populate on 125W also with a 24" dish and a linear LNB

I use a 33" dish with a motor HH-90 and a Invacom Universal Linear/Circular LNB.

With that i get over 20 satellites.

With a simply Dishnet dish you cannot performed many channels, but you can buy a Linear LNB and get 1 sat at time.

C/P for all the good guys.

AMC-21 was launched and placed at a longitude of 125° West August 14 2008.

It carries 24 J band (IEEE Ku band) transponders, which will be used to broadcast television signals to Canada the Caribbean, Mexico, and the United States.
With 24 Ku TPs Iam sure they will have more channels to come and the sound fix.

I just did a Blind Scan and picked up six 6TPs, only two 2 had Tv channels,
picture only no sound. TPs 12116 H & 12180 V both have the same channels.
These channels are Free to Air.

Provider for these two TPs

Dish Size depends where you live.

Thanks plymouth,
I wasn't sure if the solution was to get the same set-up as you or not.

If FTA goes down with N3, that can be a solution.

The above TV Channels at AMC 21 can also be found at
AMC 3 @ 87.o*W. using the same TP 12180 V plus some
other FREE to AIR Channels. There are few Muslim channels there also.
