Looking for ways to get a FTA system up and running at your home? Then you’ve come to the right place. I’m going to give you a quick overview of all the necessary equipment and steps.

The first step is to pick the right FTA equipment.

Make a short list of all the basic things you need to buy. This way you have an overview of all the parts and you can hunt for the best models online and compare prices and features. An information website on FTA satellite receiver can deliver you any information you need.

This is what you will definitely need in order to set up your FTA system:

The HD TV itself.

A small satellite dish.

A FTA Satellite receiver.

A low noise block.

Some people get the biggest and newest piece of equipment and pay up to $1000, but you can find a lot of high quality products for much less. But the smart buyer compares prices and looks into models that have been around and have positive reviews associated with them.

Next, decide where you’re going to watch television - on your TV screen or your computer. Yes, you can watch TV on your computer, I know some people who do that all the time and they actually prefer it because they can browse the net or chat with friends during commercial breaks.

When you have decided which products you want and where you want to watch TV you can start to purchase and install the Free to Air equipment.

Usually you can do the whole installation yourself. When installing the dish, try a few spots before you install it completely - find the spot with the best signal. If the place is on your roof, make sure you take safety precautions and always have someone by your side to help you in the case of an emergency!

There you have it. As soon as everything is in place you can watch HD TV without ever paying a cable company ever again.
