I got over 600 FTA channels!

My set-up...
Fortec Mercury II receiver.
VBox II diseqc to 36 volt dish positioner controller.
12 ft. C/Ku wire mesh dish with 36 in. 36 volt dish actuator/positioner.
BSC621-2 C/Ku LNBF
You are now entering the twilight zone. You really will find some channels you like and then forget all about them I swing from 30 to 139 with 40.5 on circular which stirs in quite a few more channels. It just amazes me how many channels there are available out there legally for free. What I find even more amazing is I keep looking for more
