The satellite that has become the prime location for international programming in the US is Galaxy 19, a powerful communications satellite that was not originally engineered for Direct-to-Home reception. Because of this, slightly larger antennas are required to downlink the programs on Galaxy 19. You will find, however, that signal quality in North America is excellent with our .75 meter elliptical antennas.
