2008 was the year I got into FTA. Being a radio and TV DXer years ago, I was always interested in eventually doing FTA. When I cancelled my Bell ExpressVu subscription a few months ago, I jumped into FTA feet first since I could use the 30" dish I was using for that. I bought a used Traxis 3500 here on Satguys. Since I quickly found that the 30" had a few signal problems because of the 2 degree satellite spacing, I got a Geosat Pro 36" from Satellite AV.

Thanks to all of the great posts and posters here, I was able to get a KU system setup quickly and easily. I'm hoping to get an HD FTA receiver in 2009. Happy New Year to everyone here!
 
After checking it out for about a year I finally jumped into the FTA pool. Lots of great stuff up there but I especially like the sports. I piggy-backed the FTA onto my 4DTV. In late Fall I installed a second c-band pole and conduit system and will be adding another dish come spring.
 
For all the folks that got into FTA this past year, welcome to the best addict......err hobby out there :D
