What size dish to recieve channels from Intelsat 18 180.0 E south of Brisbane on C-band?

I'm south of Brissy and have a 2.2m and get all the frenchie channels.
Um, there actually is NO C-Band. its L or R or KU.
I get all the KU stuff.

In the old days you use to get all the ch7 and 9 feeds from Sylmar California. Nowadays using a 2.3m in the south east it's just AFN 4174 Left hand circular very low res pics, and Australia + on 4070 Right hand circular. The 3753Mhz Right hand is on the Northern beam for Japan and Korea, not received here ... To convert to L/R circular Dielectric plate is needed. On the Ku band side "Canal Calédonie" is well received on a 75cm dish. Universal LNB is needed, The Vertical "Tahiti Nui TV" is on the Western hemi beam.

I get on CBand 4 channels.
News, Sports Australia Plus something else.
All open with keys.

Those were the Old days when I use to sit down and watch Cinimax Movies or Showtime from 2.30 PM to around 7PM where when they use to change to Videoplex for the NBC and ABC.

I'm on the west coast of Canada. I have a 4-foot offset dish fixed on 180E Ku. The lovely Tahitian music and programming is 12.2 dB day and night.
