You should be ok but might need a larger dish. Go here (http://www.lyngsat.com/tracker/dtv1.shtml) and click on your map location to get az/el.

I know in Edmonton you can get most of the channels on a 1 meter dish and all of them on a 1.8 meter. If your friend can get DTV up there he is going to need one hell of a big dish. Good Luck!
