The Freedom of Free-To-Air

Free To Air (FTA) radio and TV channels are broadcasts unencrypted and therefore can be freely received using an appropriate receiver. As the name suggests, they do not require a paid subscription to be viewed but may be restricted geographically. On the other hand, paid channels are encrypted and therefore need a payment to be made in order to view them.
FTA system is easy to install with the instructions provided in the documentation accompanying the hardware.  Even if you think that the high fee, pay-per-view channel subscriptions aren’t burning a hole in your pocket already, you might want to explore the other side of the coin; get a  Free to air receiving system installed and experience the freedom and diversity of the channels you get to view. Be it news, views, politics, religion, cartoon or sports, there are more than a thousand FTA channels to explore for free.
To get connected and to view the FTA channels, you need buy some hardware. This mainly consists of a FTA receiver, a satellite dish, satellite switches and some LNBs or Low Noise Blockers. LNBs enable you to view to more than one type of channel s in case you have more than one TV at your place and wish to watch different channels of them at the same time. With one LNB catering to one TV, you can attach multiple ones as per the number of TVs you attach to one dish.  



However when buying into this system, one must be aware that all Free to air channels will not be as good on the reception-end when compared to the expensive paid-per-view channels. Although a 120 cms dish antenna is sufficient to receive the Ku band channels, if you wish to view the high quality free to air TV channels you need to buy a slightly pricier and bigger dish antenna for the C-band channels but don’t be troubled as you’re sure to get your money’s worth.
