Thank You

Thanks for pointing out the Brazil channels available in the USA. Since most people here are only using KU band dishes around 90cm, none of these channels will be available to the avergae FTA user.

I am a new to all this. I live in W.Va. and I still haven't purchased any equipment. I am debating between a 90-cm dish and a 120-cm dish.

I too would like to get Brazilian programming in Portuguese. As I look at footprint maps I am slightly encouraged that 120cm might be enough to get some of them. Is this correct?

Roughly, could someone tell me by what percentage will the number of free channels that are available to me go up should I upgrade from a 90-cm dish to a 120-cm dish?
