Well channels tend to be for their own region. DirecTV has some limited international programming that you could look into, but otherwise channels are for their own country.

It's not possible to pick up those satellite transmissions in the USA.

Are you moving or just temporarily staying in the US? What area of Latin America were you having DIRECTV service in? The only way to have the ‘exact’ same service in the US would be to bring the receiver over and have a dish big enough to be able to reliably pick up whichever satellite DIRECTV uses in Latin America (I don’t remember what they use down there.) even then, you should check the footprints of that satellite to see if it is even receivable in the USA. 

As a note, by doing this, you are illegally receiving service outside of the area designated for reception. Just thought I’d put that out there. So, do anything at your own risk.

The Latin America DirecTV satellite footprint does not cover the USA.
