Does anyone know if Shaw will work in the southern US? Retiring this fall and we are planning on wintering in the southern US.

A larger dia. dish can sometimes help. You can look up footprint coverage maps on the internet for the Anik sats at 107.3 degrees and 111.1 and see if a larger dish than you are using now is recommended for where you will be staying.
I've been able to get Bell 82 as far south as the WA/OR border with a 24" dish and had good signal S & Q. I have a 36" dish I will take the next time we go farther south and see how far it will work. Getting a weaker signal takes more careful aiming with the larger dish though and can be frustrating. I've been looking for a 10' dia. mesh dish for home but would be great fun to take RV-ing, lol... :)
Bell HD channels are on Nimiq 4 at 82 degrees but what I don't like is that the program guide is on their other sat at 91 degrees and you can't prerecord anything either. I prefer to use just one LNB to make setup easier and faster and don't need to bother with skew.
