There are lots of fta channels on C band, but make sure your receiver can do dvb-S2. Just keep reading as there is valuable information to learn, and it takes time to figure it all out. I have been using fta for years, and still do not know everything. The members on this sight are fantastic and will always help you out or steer you in the right direction. This is definitely the best place to be for all your satellite needs.
    yea me old school using polarotor but gives me best signal strength I have openbox v8 alien2 but my fav is gskyv7 doesn't get the credit it deserves on this site for a beginner I would recommend highly.

    I agree with Caretaker. The GSKY V7 is a great box that auto rolls and most of the PowerVu Channels and BISS along with FTA channels. I also agree with getting a LNBF and Vbox Dish Mover. Since your dish is already set up and moves it will not take much to get up and running.

    The hello box support is dead, and without the ability to add emm keys it's most likely soon to be very flawed. Do your homework and get a supported box. Good luck

    Getting C Band up and running again was much tougher than ku. Settled on a Zgemma H7, Titanium C2-PLL lnbf and ASC1 dish mover.
    The H7 delivers far better hd video than my T5 and 8000 HD boxes plus 4K UHD is amazing. Very little US support for C Band but European sites give enough info to get you going. IPTV lives very nice on the H7 and a 1TB drive added makes recording a dream.
    Kodi is a bit balky. But hey, that's why I have a Fire TV.
