So what am I looking for to determine if the sat receiver will decode HD streams? This is the package I was looking at: DSB5700 System

So from the preliminary review of the FORTEC STAR Mercury II receiver it looks to be a good starting point for me. I have contacted the seller to see if I can get it. One thing I took note and wasn't sure if I should be concerned about is that it only decode MPEG-2, but I have read talk about...

Sky, Do you think that craigslist ad would be a good starting point for me? It looks like a good deal. And do you have any recommendations on how I can determine if I have a true line-of-sight without fancy instruments? I have an iphone so I could use the iphone aiming app, but thats $10 for the...

Skyscanner, Thank you so much for your quick response and your encouraging words. I will be heading home for lunch today so I will get photos of the dish and all the particulars on it (at least what I think is relevant). Can you explain why gaining 123 and 125 would be difficult from the same...

My name is Seth and I'm looking to get started in FTA satellite TV. I have a couple of questions though. I found this site and it got me excited about the concept of free TV so after work I went into my attic and found an old Channel Master dish P/N 3041124 with 3LNBs (??) attached with a 4x4...
