It depends on where you are located and what you want.
I suggest you go to Lyngsat.cxx and have a look at the various sats that supply DN.

The size of the required sat also depends on where you live. If you are on the fringe of the footprint then you'll need a larger dish.. maybe a 36 inch. Otherwise a 20 inch will work fine. If you are ambitious enough you could get a T-90 sat. Tricky to put up especially if you have never installed a sat before, but well worth it.

Most of the sats have HD programming. Some have more than others...Go hereand you can check to see what sats have the most HD: http://www.lyngsat.com/packages/america.html

Also, even if you have an HD tv, your going to need an HD receiver with an 8PSK Module to get HD programming...And like posted above, it also depends on your location...If your too far east, you mayu not get 129.0W and may have trouble with 119.0W...
But check out the lyngsat website, when you click on the link, then look for the sat you want to look at, then click on dish Network....it will show you the channel lineup and if it is HD or not...The HD channels will be in green...
Hope this helps
