Hi! I'm sure you guys have heard this question a million times but..what channels can i revive with a pansat 3500 SD..do u get HBO, starz, pay-per-view?...and i went to the lyngsat.com website..but i do not understand it one bit..arite thanks..

NO, those are pay channels.

So that would be STEALING! (Hacking) We have a VERY strict NO HACK TALK policy here!

Here is a thread with a couple of good lists of what you can expect to get with a 30" dish and KU LNBF!

considering those are pay subscription services, you wouldn't get them on a free to air box.

The guy sounds pretty legitimate in the fact that he doesn't know what FTA is all about. Pretty much a newbie at that. I don't think he was trying to steal anything. He was just inquiring as to the channels he could possibly receive with an FTA receiver. Lyngsat is a pretty confusing website for those who are just finding out about the hobby. It takes some effort to read into the fact that some channels are available for free and the other fact that there are some channels that aren't available for free and that they require a subscription through C-band, Dish, or Direc.

Personally, I give him the benefit of the doubt.

I'd give the benefit of the doubt first, but as soon as they make it clear that they want to hack, give them the boot.

I'm all for helping the newbie, we all were newbies at one time, but I also want to keep our board a great place for legitimate satellite enthusiats.

I think the mods do a great job of keeping it that way.

Back on topic...

To the new guy, Let us know what kind of dish you have, and where it's pointed, and take it from there...

[Mr Tony]

What are you using right now to get the Dish Network stuff? The Pansat or a Dish reciever?

 

[newpansat]

i am currently subscribed to dish netowrk..and i am using a dish reciever

 

[PSB]

Sounds like you have decided to drop your subscription to Dishnetwork and just go ahead and use your FTA receivers for Dish programming!


Thats HACK TALK!

 

[newpansat]

how?

 

[PSB]

This blockhead just PM'd me saying he wants to know how to get Dish programming on his Pansat.

Maybe Dishnetwork will tell him as his details have been sent

 

[Mr Tony]

I guess you can disregard my PM then Pete
