I once found a 90cm dish just lying on the street. I dragged it home and set it up by opening a south-facing window, added coax line and jammed the LNB into a north-facing armchair. I got the exact satellite I wanted within 5 minutes, namely Astra1 19.2E. Hundreds of channels direct from Germany. Much better than British Freesat.
I can also get TV from Hotbird from an old dish on the roof. Literally thousands of free channels from all over the world. I can't even remember how I navigated through them. One of the best channels was the Russia Today/RT Documentary channel. Loads of documentaries about Siberian road trips and stuff like that. Beautiful.
Absolutely agree on the amazing stuff on Astra/Hotbird, but in hindsight we now know how Russia Today was being funded and used as a weapon to spread misinformation. The beauty of satellite TV is you get to see channels from all around the world and many sides of a story, you just have to remember the political motive of some state funded channels.
Yes I use 19.2e in UK via 60cm for mtv germany as its FTA in MPEG2 with dance clips. As MTV UK doesn't show dance music.
I had a 36 in motorized dish for a short while. I found myself doing more blind scans than watching anything. Since I live in a metro area with plenty of OTA channels I don't watch anyways due to all of the programming being complete trash. I just spend my time on TH-cam and HAM / GMRS Radio...radio is by far more interesting than TV these days. Also, no TV or internet makes everything peaceful as I don't see a war or people killing each-other outside my window...makes you think if anything inside TV or internet matters at all when your personal world is completely different.
You also right TV sucks today
I appreciate your information - and plan to follow up with questions - I still have my old gear from the 80's love to restore my system
Currently not in the US, but am very much looking forwards to putting together a setup. I’m especially interested in getting backhaul feeds, of say, concerts or awards shows. The most interesting part about these is that they come with high-bitrate uncompressed video and Dolby E audio, which you can have lots of fun with.
If you haven’t already, I’d appreciate a video about getting started with what am interested in. Thanks so much! Keep up the great work.
I’ll check into it, thanks for watching and best wishes.
@@NorthcoasterHobby Yeah, thanks. I’ll be looking forwards to it.
Cool video(s)! Thanks for the info!
You’re welcome, thanks for watching!
hi, great Vid, so if i set up basic system described, roughly, what amount of channels would i recieve (on East Coast in PA.)..TIA
It really depends on the satellite you aim your dish at. Have a look on Lyngsat at the different channels on each satellite:

Thanks for watching!
Thanks Dude 👍
You’re welcome.
Thanks
You’re welcome!
I love satellite dishes
Can you get a c-band on a dish for on-hand? By changing the lnb?
C band is really only fully possible with larger dishes of 8-10 feet. Smaller dishes of 4-6 feet will work if the are outfitted with a C band LNB, but will only collect the strongest transponders. You might get lucky on a 39” KU Band dish retrofitted with a C band LNB, but the chances are marginal.
Are the antennas and all other items good also for satellite TV in South America or just for North America.
They’re good for South America too, but I’d use a universal LNB to cover the entire KU bandwidth.
Cool vids
Thanks for watching.
I have a King Dish Tailgater 4500 Portable HDTV Antenna Unit. Can this be used to pick us Free satellite tv also ?
Thanks for watching. More than likely it won’t work because the dish probably has a circular LNB, meant for subscription services such a Dish Network, Bell, etc. Also the dish is probably on the small side. Free satellite TV dishes need to be 33-39” in diameter.

Can you tell me if the old C-band has any free channels to be viewed ?? Thanks for the information fella too.

@@NorthcoasterHobby Thank you fella.
@@victoryfirst2878 You’re welcome.👍
Can I use my old Dish Network or Direct TV dish and just swap out the LNB to a linear KU Band LNB?
It’s possible but not necessarily east to set up, takes a bit of playing around with. But can be done.
I do know you can get some free channels using a dish network dish and a free to air receiver like the sonic view receivers because that’s what I use but can you tell me of a good quality dish that I can get more channels do you know the model number and where I can get one thanks
Here’s one of the dishes I’ve bought and use. It works very well:

I would like to know what kinda channels do you get, do you have videos on what channels you can get I don't want all channels about kids learning.

hey there can you tell us why you have more than one c band satellite?
At the time I had picked up a couple of C-band dishes for free. I dismantled them myself and set them back up in my yard. One is almost always fixed on 97 W., and the other I move around to search for channels and use in my videos. Since they are not motorized, I find it easier to have one that is stationary for TV watching and one I can manually move around the geostationary arc to search for channels. Just my personal preference. Thanks for watching!📡📡
What's the "best" receiver for free satallite? Are all 39 inch ebay ku dishes the same? is there any quality difference between manufacturers? Is ku even worth it in Western Colorado where I am? Is a 4k receiver worth it?
I use the 39” dishes from eBay with no problems. Go with the Amiko Mini HD265:
th-cam.com/video/DQ_i4tjFMcc/w-d-xo.html
Is it possible to get any CBS channel for the evening tv shows, like NCIS?
To my knowledge, not on KU Band currently.
"Free satellite TV". Or as it's known outside the USA, "satellite TV". 🙂
Good point. Outside of North America is probably more accurate.📡
i have never heard of free satellite tv, here nothing outside national tv is free
@@LuisTorres-vc6bq Free satellite and terrestrial TV is literally the default (and often the only option) in most of the world. In the UK for example we have Freeview and Freesat, with less than 1/3 of households choosing to pay for subscription satellite TV (i.e. Sky), usually for live sports games.
In most of Europe the percentage of people paying for premium channels is significantly less and in Africa less than 1% of satellite viewers have a subscription service, since premium channels are just not available other than DSTV.
As an example, the reason the big news channels such as Al Jazeera, CNN, BBC World etc are global news brands is because they're easily available free in most of the world on Satellite. If they charged a subscription it's not just that people would not choose to pay or even have any way to pay (subscription requires decoders etc which are not standardised or included in many satellite recievers), much of the world would not accept the cost, so the advertising revenue from a massive global audience is much greater than that minimal subscription revenue from the small number of viewers that would replace it.
@@oldblueshirtguy oh, well , never heard about it, but here every phone and internet provider has satellite tv I think nearly no one has its own installation
Just wondering who provides the free satellite signal , where does it come from?
Satellite operators sell space to TV broadcasters, who put their unencrypted channels on various satellites for viewers to receive with the right kind of satellite dish and receiver. If a broadcaster did not want people watching their channels for free they can encrypt them using many different types of encryption systems.📡
I have an Orby dish, what do I need to convert it?
It should be useable as it is. You need to get a receiver as I described in the video. Then set up the dish according to your location and the satellite you wish to receive.📡
Very informative. Will a dish network reciever work with the linear lnb that you described?
What can we pick up? what shows?
A variety of stuff:

Number 83 thanks
I live in the Mountains....Would this work up there? Regular Antennas don't work at all because of all the hills and trees..so most people just get cable or use the internet... I did have a subscription to DISH Tv but canceled it...Curious if I could use this Dish to get Free Regular TV Channels...
Thanks for watching! You’re best to get a proper ku band satellite dish. A Dish Network dish won’t work. It has a circular ku band LNB and is too small in size. My video below has more information:

Thanks again for watching!📡
Get an enigma 2 set up with oscam and get everything else too. Proper free TV and feeds too
I like the Amiko Mini receivers myself. They work great for channels that are in the clear and unencrypted.
how many channels
Between C band and KU band TV and radio channels, hundreds.
Can it work in Jamaica 🇯🇲?
Yes.
hard to find orby tv dish but i am finding c band all day free
Scoop them up where you can!
@@NorthcoasterHobby i not looking for a c band cause i got to much 5g interference i would need something like 12ft or 15ft intill they come out with filters , but if I find a ku for the right price i will scoop it up. btw you said you dont need to replace the cable . that a no no . i have ran into dish network cable that are rg59 and currently still have a cable that label dish network
@@leobrocato3230 I said ‘probably’ reuse. I also mentioned RG6 as being the right cable to use. Any cable company still installing RG59 shouldn’t be in business. But thanks for letting me know, unbelievable they would still use RG59.

@@mujeebnizamani4180 Those satellites are on the other side of the world, I can’t receive them. Try the websites Dishpointer or Lyngsat. The links are in the video description. Thanks for watching.
What about the average Joe that just wanted to watch a few channels no electronics to help with?
A dish and receiver are needed for FTA satellite TV. Do you use a TV antenna by any chance? That’s another free TV option.

Are you using a satellite dish or a TV antenna?
@@NorthcoasterHobby satelite dish. Works wonderfull. Never ever pixelation.
