there's still some feeds up there analog but their not in my opinion worth messing with.
If your running a corotor type feedhorn with a servo polarity motor you need an analog receiver.
you can figure out the economics.... an analog receiver 50.00 or so. requiring you to fumble two remotes (like i do) to change polarity and move the dish to the appropriate satellite and H or V for the digital signal you wish to get on your fta box.
or you can buy a c band lnbf that will use coax voltage from the receiver to switch seemlessly as you flip channels and a vbox that will automatically move the dish when you choose another satellite. For a new person...i would recommend the G or V box route with an lnbf.
lots of digital stuff up there nowdays...don't be too disappointed about the absence of analog.
the channel population has exploded. tons of stuff in digital. we do not disclose what we can receive (legally) because the fear the programmers will encrypt the signals if they think we found them. different members have different attitudes and opinions on this and i am not trying to start a hijacked thread debate .
with digital your dish has to be aimed properly. analog is more forgiving of aiming errors since you would simply have sparklies if your signal is not optimal....on digital you pretty much have a perfect picture or nothing. maybe some freezing or macroblocking of the images if your signal level drops below the digital cliff effect. have fun and all of us on here will help you any way we can.
Sadoun Satellite Sales (1-888-519-9595) has gboxes and lnbf's if your interested.
also another person i deal with is
American Satellite Distributors for DirecTV, Free-To-Air, Satellite Dishes, Towers and they are great too. nothing but great experience buying from both sadoun and eyeinthesky.
