Question for Canadians - Re Bell Expressvu

Hello all,

Does anyone use Bell while travelling in the U.S.? I am curious how far south the signal goes.

Also, do you use a tripod, roof mount, what works for you?

Thanks so much.

Ensign

Hmmm..I think my folks used to use Bell all the way down to Phoenix, but I'm not 100% sure...

What ever you do DO NOT let Bell know you are in the US or they will shut your service off...

It will work Dave but if you phone them about an aiming problem they will shut you off till you are back in Canada... it has to do with lic. Shaw has no problem with you being in the USA...

Double check to satellite coverage map after the new satellite is in orbit later this year. It does not properly cover the southern parts of the USA (like AZ).
