I was actually wondering this myself. My question about C-band was because I actually have enough space for a BUD in my attic. DARN. its a city lot so outside it just ain't gonna happen.

So what about C-band? Because of the lower frequency I would think it would have much better penetration, possibly enough to let the signal get into an attic?

I don't even have my FTA system started yet, but I have been looking around trying to find some stuff that would make it worth getting. I found out that on 129W all 4 major networks are available in Mpeg4 8psk format. This MAY help sway my decision, so what is 8psk, and which recievers do it? I...

Ok. So I have been reading around a little bit. I have an idea of which receivers and dish I want to get. But what else do I need? A grounding rod and maybe a switch is all I think I need. Which LNB should I get, I don't need the top of the line, just enough to get some of the stuff mostly on...

I would like to thank everyone for all the help! I am definitely ready to get my feet wet and start watching free tv. I have found lots of programming on G25 that is also of interest to me, and it should be fairly easy to get that satellite. My question is is there a way to mount another LNB to...

Hd What HD channels are available and on what sats? we do have 1 small HDTV and it would be nice to be able to access them.

Hey, do you know what the cable company usually installs, because that is what I have. What are some satellites that you guys watch and which channels are interesting on a few of them? I would be willing to try a few different sats to see what is out there, but it would be nice to not have to...

Thank you, and usually there are 2 recievers active, but these are terrestrial OTA recievers, although when I get the FTA set up i will likely have at least 2 recievers, as there is me and my mom living here. I did a site survey and from my ideal mounting location right beside my house I have a...

Thank you and no that wasn't too much information. Like I said, I am into ham radio as well and I have heard FTA described as the shortwave radio of the TV world. I am really into the technical stuff and actually understood most of the stuff in that post. my lat lon is 41.133062,-81.712317 South...

Thank you for the help so far. My view to the south is pretty good as long as it isn't southeast. More questions: Still wondering about my existing OTA setup and using the antenna, dish, switch, and the 2 different kinds of receivers. If I did this would I have to run 3 different leads of coax...

Hello, I have started becoming interested in FTA. I am currently into ham radio and it seems as if this is somewhat down the same alley, more experimental and as a hobby than anything else. I would be interested, however, in using the system as entertainment. I do have a few questions. I live in...
