Free to Air

If you are one who likes to keep up with the latest technology, have you got your Free to Air (FTA) system yet? If not, you are falling behind the times and are not enjoying the most up to date technology available for receiving free TV programming. Get with the times and get your FTA system today to begin watching free programming tonight.

Free to Air is a wonderful (formerly well kept) secret that is finding an enthusiastic reception here in North America where reception is readily available. The beauty of using a FTA satellite system is that you can quite literally receive hundreds of channels broadcast from all over the world at no cost. You read right, at no cost! The only cost you will ever incur is the cost of the FTA satellite system. There are no monthly subscription fees, no contracts to sign up for and it is completely legal. It may sound too good to be true, but FTA satellite viewing is here to stay and stay for free with the right equipment.

How can this be you may be asking yourself? Well, it is actually quite simple. There are hundreds of satellites out in space floating around picking up unencrypted transmissions from all over the planet. The floating satellites re-broadcast the signals, still unencrypted, over North America where they can be readily accessed with an FTA receiver. The key to FTA is the fact that these signals are unencrypted and therefore do not require decoding to be viewed like Dish or DirectTV signals.

Before you can purchase the right system for you, research your options. If you intend to only tune into one satellite, a stationary system will be sufficient for you. However, should you desire to tune into programming from multiple satellites, you will need a system with a motorized hub. Motorized hubs allow the viewer to switch from one satellite to another seamlessly and quickly.

The Internet is the best resource for information and ordering FTA systems. Go online and spend time familiarizing yourself with what is available to ensure you get the best price possible. Online you will find numerous name brands that manufacture FTA systems both in regular and HD: BirdDog, Dreamstar, nFusion, Fortec and Sonicview are just a few.

Prices vary widely depending on what sort of receiver you choose; for instance, the deluxe nFusion HD 8Psk Combo is only $389, whereas the Sonicview 360 Premier for non-HD TV is only $119. Dishes are readily available from such name brands as MultiStar, DishTV, DirectTV, Dreamstar, Fortec and Digiwave at prices ranging from $50-$170.

It is highly advisable to order only from highly reputable online FTA stores, such as incredibleFTA, for the best products and service. Make sure the site you order from offers online chat so that you can get quick answers to your questions and instant installation help is there if you need it. Be free of the high cost of pay satellite TV, go FTA!
