Hi to all you Satellite Guys
I signed up on your website a couple of months ago, but just sat on the sidelines reading the posts and answers until I had gained enough knowledge to not have to bother everyone with elementary questions. I am now at that stage, but before I take up your valuable time asking for your help on the what, how and where questions, I would first appreciate your help on the basic question: “Given my objectives, should I be into FTA?”
With that said, my basic objectives are:
1. I enjoy and want to watch non-editorialized/slanted news, some sports, interesting/informative specials, and good older movies and who-done-its where there is a good script, competent acting and good camera work.
2. I want to stop kicking myself for paying cable TV $50/month for channels I never watch and for the other channels I seldom watch. Based on what cable offers, I only watch TV about 4-7 hours a month.
3. Am I right for FTA and is FTA right for me?
This background information may help: Male, WW11 Artillery Radio Operator, Korean War Intelligence Officer, Ford T-Bird and Edsel Product Planning, Chrysler Operations Analysis and then 35 years as a consultant.
Thanks greatly and I will appreciate your input,
Gene B

to SatelliteGuys... C-Band may be more to your interests and you can use FTA with C-Band but I will let the FTA'ers answer to the FTA part...
