    Dvbworld Software with Blindscan Released

    I have been somewhat out of the FTA loop for a while :(. I just ordered a new DVB-S2 CA USB 2104D to replace my old DVB World Box :). After reading this thread it convinced me to get back into it. How well does this new USB box work with Vista??

    Newbie question

    I think the best one is at 123.0 , but there is some foreign on it also. The best thing about FTA is the "wild" feeds you can pick up.

    when to take dish down

    I took my FTA dish down just to be on the safe side. I leave my E* dishes up because there smaller and there mounting poles are alot shorter so there is very little movement from wind on those. Were not suppose to get very high winds but I'm not taking any chances. It only takes 1 good windgust.

    PBS channels on AMC 3 audio problems using Viewsat Extreme

    Hmmm never thought of that so I tried that and it does work :). The headphone have a wierd looking connector but part of the connector does have a single audio looking plug and it will except the single wire speaker connector from your computer

    what sattelites have free channels?

    Well FTA is a hobby thing not a system to replace your normal carrier. Unless you like international channels. There are LOTS of wild feeds, thats what makes it a hobby. And G10R is a GREAT bird :D.

    The Best Satellite? Your Idea?

    G10 I think is a great bird. But I'm glad I have a motorized dish :).

    Free Shipping?

    With the weight of an FTA dish, you aren't going to find FREE shipping unless you go pick it up. If they did offer free shipping then the price would go up on the dish to offset the shipping.

    Humpty Dumpty C-Band dish sat on a wall.....

    Yea I'd like to know the same thing. I have a 180cm "stationary" and would like to make it into a "polar mount" but I need the modified circular ring on the back. I was told awhile back they (Sadoun's) couldn't get replacement parts and I would have to buy a whole new dish :(.
