DirecTV Argentina in USA

Hi Satelite Gurus,
I would like to subscribe to DirecTV Argentina and would love to
be able to view it in North Miami. I currently have DirecTV in the
states with the High Definition anthena (don't know the name of the
anthena, but is fairly larger than the regular one). If i bring the
receiver from DirecTV Argentina to the USA, will I be able to watch it
with my anthena? Is it possible?

Thanks in advanced...

I just looked around and discovered a DirecTV South America footprint
map at:

http://www.kvh.com/footprint/footprint_tv.asp

KVH supplies satellite TV and internet service to mobile users (cars,
boats, etc.), apparently using DirecTV's satellites. If you click on
the South America Coverage map link, you'll see that the image says
DirecTV on it. And it shows a small, separate footprint in southern
Florida. So you may be in luck. But hopefully someone who's actually
done it will answer your question.

I've actualy heard of someone who has tried it and they are able to
receive most of the channels, but not all of them. They are using the
regular dish provided by DirecTV so I was wondering if the fact that
i'm using an HD dish will help in a better reception (all channels).

I have a condo that is on the edge of a spot beam for my local channels.
Most of the time I can get them but in the summer when there is a lot of
high altitude turbulence, the signal strength can go to zero. FL, being
closer to the equator, may be better, but don't expect perfection when
you are trying to receive signals that are not actually aimed at you.

Thank you guys for your posts. I will try it and post here the
results. Is there anything else I should take into consideration?

That's called a "toe print". :-)

Hey, I can imagine that you are an argentinian. I am too and I did the same thing that you were asking about. Were you able to ever find the satellite? (I am not) and watch the programming? I know that this is a very old post but if you did can you help me. Thanks Rodrigo

hi Rodrigo I wonder if you could finally watch DTV Argentina?
