Take a look at lyngsat dot com to see what's up there.
If he already has a 1 Meter dish, I would put it on a motor (The DG-280 PowerTech motor is excellent) and start exploring the sky.
There are sats on DN that carry HD programming, such as 61.5w and 129w
And there are True FTA channels on 123w.
I wish 82w reached further south as I know plenty of people who would like to access their programming, but since Nimiq 4 has been moved into that space, the footprint has been reduced significantly and is focused more on Canada and less on the US.

Thanks Sky_Pilot for your help.
Great idea. I'll check with lynsat to see what HD channels are on 61.5 and 129W. I do believe he is out of luck with the Equator channel as Charlie does not have it. I spoke with him about a motor on it and he said he tried a motor several years back and had a hard time with it . Could never get it to work well.
