Thread: Enter to Win: Sponsors Super Satellite Sampler System - Contest Ends 2.28.2010

After setting up my first FTA dish 3-4 years ago. I've become a sort of evangelist for FTA up here un NW ND. I have an array at home, one at the shop, and have set up three others in 2009. Have had a lot of interest from people all over the county, but at the moment the ground is a bit stiff for digging posts in. I'm predicting a good year for FTA when the thaw comes.

Great contest!

Hockey was my reason for FTA. Oh how I remember watching Hockey Night in Canada back in the late 80's on a Saturday night on the almost $3,000 installed 10' dish! I sure wish I had it back...

First off any type of cable or sat is very expensive in this economy especially if you dont have a job. SO this would appeal to a lot of people.

Secondly I have never owned a free to air sat system. Taking my first paragraph above I do understand what the cost saviings to me and my familty would be.

Thanks for a great contest. I got my first Bud in 1989, but got away from it for a few years. We tried the two subscription companys. but couldn't watch much tv for the Trash, so I decided to look at C band and Ku band, and glad I did. We have plenty of family friendly programs for all ages, and don't have to delete channels so the grandkids don't get electrified. This website, Satelliteguys is a blessing to us all. Thanks .

You know how sometimes, you have 200 cable/satellite channels, and there is nothing to watch but reruns? FTA opens up the "whole world" to you for free

I'm currently saving up my pennies to buy my first FTA system. I had C-band subscriptions several year ago but constantly had problems with it (not the least of which was my dog repeatedly digging up my ribbon cable and chewing it in half) so I switched to DirecTV. I had that for several years and grew weary of spending so much money on it. I've now had it shut off for about 3 years and have been living off of hulu and OTA broadcasts. I would like to get a FTA system to add the ability to receive ION/RTN/qubo to our meager OTA selection.

My plan is to have enough pennies saved up to get a good receiver this summer and bring to life the B.U.D. that is sitting in the back yard of my new house begging for some WD-40 and paint.

I have been interested in satellite tv beginning with the 10 ft andrews dish, fta is just a natural evolution to satisfy curiosity

I first became interested in FTA Satellite after becoming a SatelliteGuys member. I had no idea that there were alternatives to DN and Dtv.
Sadly, despite being more informed of my options, I have still not yet had the opportunity to utilize FTA... but winning this package would certainly change that!!

Hundreds of Free Channels available even some in HD, programming from all over the world.
TV at its best.
