Sue DeHut requested me to share with these lists results re TV5.

Willamette has a TV5 DishNetwork dish up and running.  Although I do not
have the numbers listed below, we accessed the signal by pointing the dish
at the western satellite rather than the eastern one which was too low on
the horizon.  According to our Language Center Director, the signal is
coming in loud and clear.
