Not sure where to post this hope someone can help. We are Canadians going to Arizona this winter. Does anyone use their Shaw Direct dish in the states ?We tried hooking ours up on a visit to the states last week but couldn't receive any reception. Any suggestions on using Shaw Direct or can you get a snowbird package while visiting over the winter. Thanks.
RF Mogul indicates there dish will work in most of the US. ie That's a standard 70cm dish. Given that any dish of the same size will work.
Your post suggests you were near the border where there are many reports of Shaw success. Maybe a cockpit problem?
I've never found any decent beam maps for Shaw. Google ones might be rather generic and apply to smaller dishes, who knows. They are a guide but best to ask fellow campers about their on location experience.
