    What satellites are good to pick up with this?

    Provided that you have universal LNBF 10.7 to 12.750 GHz range you might get at least + or - 10 FTA or FTE stations, some Mexican, BVN Dutch and BYU. You must be in Southern part of USA for 116.8W* bird to get this kind of signal. Good luck and happy DXing!! :cool: :hungry2:hatsoff

    Any ideas FUBO carrying ESPN at 30 FPs instead at normal 60 FPs?

    Now I noted main ESPN on Hulu is showing cranked down video framerates to 30 FPs instead of normal 60 FPs on a NBA game. At the sametime my local over station KOAT-DT "ABC-ESPN" which is owned by Hearst has a habit of converting from 720p 60 FPs to 1080i 30 FPs looks nice and smooth despite...

    Any ideas FUBO carrying ESPN at 30 FPs instead at normal 60 FPs?

    Interesting though, If you go to Hulu which carrys ESPN + they show true 60 FPs on live sports on basketball games. When watching main ESPN on FUBO at 30 FPs which is distracting and does not have a smooth motion. Is FUBO cranking down on video framerates and preserve the bandwith on purpose?🙄...

    Any ideas FUBO carrying ESPN at 30 FPs instead at normal 60 FPs?

    I noted ESPN 1 and 2 are sent in 30 FPs instead of Normal 60 FPs on FUBO streaming service? I find it annoying seeing slight video judders and no smoothness. 😛 While FOX Sports 1 and 2 are shown at normal 60 Fps on FUBO? Is there a tech, problem or contract deal for bandwith cost?🤷‍♂️ I am...

    Comments from a newbie to FTA

    Anything higher than 3 GHz will have frequency drifts problems for narrowband transmission less than 1 MHz wide. You can buy more expensive LNBF or pro receivers out there where you can reliably lock in narrowband bandwidth carriers feeds out there. Or you can go to SDR route which is cheaper...
