    information

    The Winegard 31 inch dish or Fortec 90cm (36 inches) dish works well for fta. If you look at a fta satellite and channel list and let us know which satellites you want to get, then you can decide to go to a motorized or stationary dish with multiple lnbs (Like the Wave Frontier T90 dish). The...

    Transponder: How to catch them all

    About 2 years ago, you could get a subscription based card for adult channels that were on Galaxy 25. They did not last long in North America but are still active over in Europe.

    New to FTA... What dish to use....

    The Fortec Star Mercury 2 is a decent starter receiver, has a very good blind search. The price is very low as well.

    Kudos to pansat and 1218 for 9200HD

    I am hoping the Fortec HD receiver for North America will be released in sometime in 2009. I know that they have quality receivers with a very good blind scan. I just talked to Fortec and they started back on working on the HD unit recently.

    Kudos to pansat and 1218 for 9200HD

    Does that update kill the pvr function of the Pansat 9200? I beleive the 1205 firmware update disabled the pvr function, but fixed the scanning issues.

    You can get a multi lnb bracket, that will allow you to have 3 or 4 (depending on the bracket) lnbs for your Fortec dish. Another option would be to motorize the dish, and replace your current lnb with a invacom quad lnb (both linear and circular outputs).
