Does anyone know if this service can be recieved in the United States,i would like to be able to get this service to recieve some Canadian channels.

Bell is not allowed to market their services to non-Canadians, but I know that people in the US do subscribe. I believe most people use a broker to do so or have a friend in Canada arrange things. Someone on this forum should be able to PM you the information... or you can do a search on the web for the information.

There are probably not that many threads on Expressvu, so you may wish to use that keyword, or BEV to do a search on this site....

Unlike Canadians who are breaking the law by subscribing to US satellite, Americans are not breaking a "direct" law by subscribing, but Bell cannot knowingly sell to US customers.

Do you know if an old direct tv dish that i have that i dont use anymore would be able to work for Express Vu?,cause then id only need to buy a reciever for it.

Depends on the dish. If you want HD, you need one of the larger dishes or two dishes because there are two sats now. I'm sorry, I'm not a BEV expert, I'm more into cable...

Check out their website...

I kept my ExpressVu dish on my Chimney...it's a normal size single dish with a dual transponder. In Montreal SD signals use one satellite at 91 degrees (Nimic1) and the latest satellite for HD (Nimic2) is at 82 degrees.

The dish/LNB should work fine according to people that have used them in this area.
One would just have to reorinate the dish.
