how to get channels

[mustang473]

ok so i dont really know quite what im doing..but i have a super dish and i need to figure out how to get some fta channels...what sats do i point at to get what?

[bigevil69]

do you want true fta channels or dn/bev channels

[mustang473]

i know i cant get dn or bev..i want true fta bc thats all i can get i believe...im located in ohio idk if that helps any

[mustang473]

and i was using dn before it went to n3 so my sat is pointed at 110 and 119...do i need to move it?

[bigevil69]

you will need a linear lnd and atleast a 30" dish to get true fta

there may be a iks workaround depending on what receiver you have

[mustang473]

what is mine then? and i wont be able to get fta?

[bigevil69]

what kind of receiver do you have

you can get it but will take a some new euipment and a little work repointing dish

[mustang473]

cw 700...what kind of equipment

[bigevil69]

a bigger dish and a linear lnb as i mentioned earlier

i would suggest leave the dish where it is and grab a kbox with khub and get most all channels on dn back

[mustang473]

so wait i can actually get dn channels? whats a khub and kbox..and how much are they

[bigevil69]

KBOX K1 PROdigy w/ K-HUB **PRE-ORDER - June 23** [K1PRODIGY w/ KHUB] - $189.00*USD : Transat Electronics, Free-to-Air Satellite Receivers and Electronics

[mustang473]

and with this il need to hook it up to the internet right? will i need to buy a different dish?

[mustang473]

and also about how many channels does it get and does it ever go down?

[bigevil69]

yes on internet
no on new dish the setup you have will work

[bigevil69]

at the time being it does go down for a few minutes at a time because they are adding more stuff to the server

[oplassman]

NO you can keep the same dish and yes you will have to hook it up to the internet.
