What size dish for SATMEX5?

[pilot]

I live in Long Beach, California and would like to see if I can receive the SATMEX5 signal on my 18" Direct TV Elliptical dish. If not, what is the minimum size dish I need to receive this signal? I live in an apartment building and can't put up a 1 or 2 meter dish. I thought a 36" Fortec dish would do the trick, for I tried to install the motor I bought from you on the DTV dish and it didn't fit.

Where can I find information like this for other satellites?

Thank You,

DirecTV is way too small. 36" with a linear lnbf will work for SatMex5 Ku.

Which of Sadoun's dishes has a linear LNBF? That's so I can buy it.
