Free to air satellite receiver (FTA receiver) is used to catch or receive the unencrypted free to air satellite transmissions. These FTA receivers are basically used to legally receive the TV signals of the free to air TV channels. You do not need to pay the subscription fee for viewing these channels. These signals are MPEG-2 video encoded. In most of the places these FTA signals can be received in the Very high frequency (VHF) or Ultra high frequency (UHF) bands.
Now to receive the channels you will require the FTA receiver and the satellite dish antenna that is in accordance with the satellite from which you intend to receive the channels. Some of the satellites require you to have a DTV compliant dish that can be bought from any distributor or the electronic goods store. Both the C and K band dishes will work fine. If you are intending to view channels from more than one satellite then the requirements will increase and you should have antenna
motor as well as LNBF.
Now the next step is to install these instruments. For this you will require the installation of the coaxial cable from the dish to the FTA receiver. This is quite a cumbersome work but you can do it if you have the technical know how. If you are going to hire the experts for this then before hiring them read the manuals, online booklets and then move accordingly.
After this the next step would be the pointing of the dish. Expert would be able to do it easily and even you can set the dish direction very easily. Now you can check online on the website of the FTA receiver for the latest updates and the installation procedures as you will need to install some different firmware also.
