1. Yes, you will get GolTV and FSE as long as they are FTA.
a. GolTV is on DishNetwork, E6/8 at 110W. You can use any DirectTV/Dishetwork dish to get this channel.
b. FSWE is on Satcom C3,
C-band. You will need bigger dish to get it, minimum 7.5ft size.
2. Getting DishNet signal is not difficult with a receiver. If you have a DVB receiver, use it. I would not recommend to use a DVB PCI for tuning the dish.
3. FTA DVB is legal. But you need to know that these channels might be encrypted in future. There are no guarantees.

First, I need to know if I can receive EchoStar 8 (GolTV) and Satcom C3 (Fox Sports World Espaņol). Those channels are listed as FTA.
Second, I live in Massachusetts USA, west of Boston. How difficult is to set the dish pointing to the right direction.
Third, I am already paying digital cable but there is no way to receive one of those channels already mentioned trough my cable provider. Is legal to get FTA channels without paying for them?
Thanks for your help.
