what is FREE TO AIR SATELLITE RECEIVER

[michel]

I read this on a website and I have no idea what this means??

"Coolsat 5000 Platinum FTA Satellite Receiver THE BEST SELLING FREE TO AIR SATELLITE RECEIVER IN NORTH AMERICA ! "

Does this mean you can get free TV by using this ?

FREE TO AIR ? is that real ? can we really watch TV without paying the cable company or sattelite company ?

Curious

The above sites are used by hundreds of thousands of fta people. They are forums, just like PERB. There are newbie sections, and advertisers. Joining is free.

Do some reading from these sites, if you're serious about FTA, you'll pick up just about anything you need to know.
Those sat signals are dropping down 24/7 into your backyard, infringing on your property. So hey, why not descramble and use them?

I love my satv.

You can get the coolsat IRD (receiver) from the buy and sell (if you live in the Lower Mainland).....the coolsat 4000 for $225 is as good as it get through the internet, therefore, you might as well get it through the buy and sell....watch out with the coolsat 5000, there was a bad batch, that comes with a bad remote......if you order the coolsat through the internet, your SOL....but if you get it through the buy and sell, you can test it before buying it.

To get all the channels, both Dish and Bell, you will need at least 2 dishes (DISH 500 dishes) and have someone that knows how to point/setup the dish for you. If you live in Surrey, (or you have BIG trees south of your house) you better bring out a compass BEFORE you invest any money into this hobby...last thing you want is to find out you don't have a clear sight to the satellite.
