EchoStar 110/119...Newbie Question...sorry!

[aswolff1971]

I have a dish 500 satellite dish pointing to Echostar West 110 and Echostar West 119. I am interested purchasing a FTA receiver..most likely the ViewSat Ultra. Without hacking the receiver will I pick any TV stations up?

If, not then what would be a good satellite to point it to get local channels and pbs, etc? I like in SouthEast USA.

Thanks.

Yes you will, you will recieve any free channels they are previewing at the time and you will also get the TV guide and PPV previews. You are not going to recieve prem. channels or anything really good. If you want true FTA please read the sticky at the top for real FTA. Real fta is not hacking and 100% legal.
