FTA Satellite and OTA Television - Viewer Questions Answered

[@NewsTimeLiveBroadcast]

Are the brackets that add up 2 4 lnbs to one dish worth it? Is it possible to point them all at different satellites without moving dish?

[@NorthcoasterHobby]

Great question. I’ve never actually tried to use one of those brackets, but plan to in the future. Since some satellite dishes have 2 or 3 LNBs built into one unit, which can be pointed at different satellites, I’d say it’s certainly possible to set up bracket like that, but it would probably take some fussing. I’m going to give it a try soon. Thanks for watching.

Yes it's worth it. For a 80cm dish you can add a second LNB just make sure the distance between LNBs is minimum 6 degrees. For a 100 cm or 120 cm you can use 4 LNBs. You won't have reception problems.

@@Nicholas_Chris It will be a fun little project!

I remember seeing a crt tv that had a directv receiver build in. But don't think they have anything like that on them flat TV's because most of them flat TV's have a streaming service built in today

[@NorthcoasterHobby]

That’s cool. I’ll look into that.

Which receiver is used with orby satellite system

[@NorthcoasterHobby]

Orby receivers are proprietary receivers, much the same as DirecTV or Dish Network.

Sry I was trying to ask if I went and bought a ota receiver which type would work with the orby satellite dish

[@NorthcoasterHobby]

@@elmetriusgreen8050 A satellite receiver you mean? It would be a free-to-air receiver, like one of these: Koqit V5H HEVC H.265 FTA Satellite TV Receiver Review kzbin.info/www/bejne/mmi5nnR9Yrp1r7c GTMEDIA V9 Prime HEVC FTA Satellite TV Receiver Overview kzbin.info/www/bejne/o2aTf4iKj9itmZY GTMEDIA V7S Free Satellite Television FTA Receiver Overview kzbin.info/www/bejne/o4DXeaN9ndeGr6c Amiko Mini HD265 HEVC H.265 Free Satellite TV Receiver Overview kzbin.info/www/bejne/g6GrmqusmsyXac0

[@NorthcoasterHobby]

Yes, true. I guess I forgot that little detail.
