Directtv in playa del carmen mexico ?

[glenndee]

Just moved to Playa Del Carmen Mexico ( just south of Cancun )...And I want to hook up my Directtv HD receiver. Has anybody had any luck or am I too far south ? Any help appreciated !!

It looks pretty bad for you as far as picking up U.S. satellite signals goes.



Have you looked into subscribing to a local satellite service, like Sky Mexico?

The nieighbor is using Dish network...not Direct Tv though...Any Idea How ? I ask him how he got it and he said a local come and install the 18" dish about a year ago....he still has a Denver billing address and is getting the east coast locals....but really doesn´t know much about how he is getting it. It doesn´t appear that dish offers service in the area....thanks for the help!

Just took acloser look at your nice graphic...looks like a 32" dish might work for me ...is that right ?.. The graph looks like if I put a 32" dish I could receive DTV...any help is great!

I'm not sure where Playa Del Carmen is, but I thought it was outside of even the green zone.

But I can only talk theory from here -- your neighbor can talk about actual on-the-ground reception fact.
