What Is Satellite Radio And How Does It Work?

Satellite radio is the latest trend in the world of radio entertainment. It is also known as subscription radio and pay radio. This is due to the fact that a paid subscription is required in order to access it. The reason for the paid subscription is because it has programs that are not offered by traditional AM and FM stations.

What is Free to Air Satellite & Fta? is it a C Band or Ku Band Satellite System?

Free To Air ( FTA ) is exactly what the name says.  It"s channels that broadcast with out being scrambled or having any type of encryption.  Usually, the TV station pays for the satellite transponder time and broadcast it to the viewer free of charge.  There are approximately 75 satellites that can be picked up from N. America, of which about 45 carry Free To Air channels.  Channels vary from wild network feeds from CNN, Fox News, ABC, NBC, CBS, BBC, and many more.  Other channels are 24-hour entertainment channels like Fashion TV, Arabic TV stations, Farsi | Persian TV, Vietnamese TV, Thai TV, Supreme Master TV, Korean TV, Christian TV via Spiritcast Christian Satellite Television, Aghapy TV, Russian TV, Afghani TV, Senegalese TV, Kurdish TV, Turkish TV, RTN TV networks and literally, much much more....

Free To Air is broadcasted both in C band and Ku band.  The difference between the two is that with Ku band you can usually use a smaller than 120cm ( 1.2 meter ) satellite dish or smaller.  With C band, in order to get proper signal, you should use a 180cm (1.8 meter | 6 foot ) satellite dish or larger.

Many Free To Air satellite distributors in the USA like WS International ( www.wsidigital.com ) sell Ku band satellite dish motors that you can use to pick up multiple satellite signals using a single satellite dish solution.  The antenna motor operates using the Free To Air satellite receiver sold by the distributor and no extra wiring is necessary.   

For most parts of the USA 30 inch satellite dishes like the Winegard DS-2076 is an excellent dish to pick up signal from most of the satellites broadcasting.  In Southern Florida and northern part of Washington state, a WS9036 90cm satellite dish is required.
