Obviously you are an American.
The providers you are talking about are scrambled 99+%.
NASA channel alone surely won't satisfy you...
This for, I have to point you to
dvbn.happysat.org
(register to read there).
They have a huge NA related section.

AFAIK the PVR150 is not made for satellite.
You would need a DVB-S (resp.DVB-S2) tuner for this.
