OK , I'm all set up w/ fta. Questions:

[SATisfied]

There are a lot of channels listed on lyngsat that I should be able to get, like NASA, The documentary channel, NBC, WB, and others. Are the channels not there now, or am I just not scanning the right frequencies?

What kind of receiver picks that up?

I have another question...I see on Lyngsat that some of the free channels are on "digicipher" format. What kind of receiver picks that up?

You would need a 4dtv receiver. And a C-band dish. Although there are some DCII channels on X4 (ku side of G4), you would still need access to C-band to get channels maps and IPG info.
