    reception Troubles

    So if I get a Niagravision receiver will I also be able to pick up the FTA channels on 95W or only those provided by Niagravision? So what I understand, you would have to get a receiver for each type of scrambled channel for each company that is doing the scrambling. Thanks for the help
