Echostar 5 requires a 24" dish with circular LNB, Intelsat Americas 7 is c band, you will need 6 foot dish, and Intelsat Americas 7, ku band requires a 30" circular LNB, I listed all three sats at 129 west, you didn't say which one. I hope this helps you Buddy :-)

Re: satellites that work with small 18"20" dish

There are a lot of HD channels on 129. DTV dish 24" should work for that sat, but it depends on what type of LNB comes with it
