How can I watch the channels listed "F" on DirecTV

[etlam34]

I'm interested in watching some "F" listed channels on DirecTV 119.How can I get these channels?I already have a free-to-air system pointed at T5 with a 30 inches dish.Do I only need to get an 18 inches DBS dish?I live in Quebec city.

Thanks in advance

Direct is not DVB, therefore you can watch it using DVB receiver.

I already have a DVB receiver.There are some Echostar satellites pre-programmed but there's no left or right polarization.Do I need to get another one with these capabilities?I want to watch EWTN.It's listed "F" on lyngsat so it means that I can hook-up an 18 inches dish to a DVB receiver?Tell me if I'm wrong or not.

If you are talking about DishNet, you can watch their FTA channels using either Directv/DishNet dish.
All you need to do is to set the LO at 11250.
If you are talking about DirectTv, the answer is NO. DirectTV is not DVB type.

Does it means that the "F" channels need a DirecTV unit to be watched?Dishnet don't have EWTN listed "F" so I'm not interested in it.

Without subsciption, I don't think Dtv can download channel guide, therefore you might need to subscribe to directv to get their FTA one.
