Can somebody tell me if I can hit the HOT BIRD 6 satelite from the North East USA and what would be the best equipment to use.

Thank you!

I hope you don't hit it too hard. With a pole that long, it would be hard to touch it gently. :D

Seriously, whether or not you're able to point at it, it probably won't be pointing back. The footprint map http://www.eutelsat.com/satellites/13ehb6_popd.html shows that it's aimed at Europe, not the US.
