Dr.Dish:
Sorry, no way. M-Net is on the East-Hemi-Beam (3.650, rhcp) of INTELSAT 601 
(27.5° West). Some people with very large dishes on the East-Coast got weak 
signals from the East-Spot, but from your place the satellite is behind the 
horizon. To make it more difficult: M-Net in encoded in IRDETO
