Equipment Required

EWTN is now available via the Optus D2 satellite in Australia and New Zealand.

This means that a small dish system can now be purchased for free to air reception of EWTN along with other Christian channels from the USA and a number of foreign channels. See the Lyngsat list for this satellite.

This makes the price $595.00 installed in most locations, more in remote areas.
