Not sure Canadian satellite can be legally received in the USA, but bell receivers are the same as Dish receivers.

IN Arizona the only Bell satellite you can see is 91W. 82W (the sat with the HD on it) the footprint is no where near Arizona (cuts out in Northern Colorado)

So really any Dish 500 or older DIrectv dish (the one with the single eyeball) will work fine

as long as he points it correctly, of course. <wink>

Hi Eddie...I just hooked up my Bell Expressvu reciever in Mesa. You can only get the 91 satellite, and not the 84, so no HD down there.
