Okay I have an FTA receiver at home with a small dish an can only get certain channels. It works but I need to buy a rotating motor to have access to other satellites. This is still in the works.

So, today looking up info on FTA I saw the article below. It's my understanding that this would be perfect for someone like me to get FREE channels via satellite by ONLY pointing to ONE satellite instead of rotating the dish and pointing to numerous ones. Downfall so far...no PBS :( Hopefully, they'll become the kids channel.The proposed orbital position for our satellite will be between 80 and 100 degrees west.

"FTA channels in the clear and Ad. supported are in the making with
former NASA engineer" Ray's Uncle" and others that are in the
television broadcasting line of work. Would start out with 20 channels
including a News channel , Mountain Music channel, Nature channel ,War
movie channel , And others.

Would include a guide that would work on most FTA's . Future channel
capacity could be as high as 200 channels. All channels would be in the
clear except a PPv movie and fight channel that would work with a
access card that plugs in the front of Your FTA receiver. Access cards
would be on a yearly fee and available from FTA dealers.

A larger Dish
would be required 22-32 inch for good reception.

FREEDBS.Org is the site name . Hope that helps."
