Direct TV 36" Dish

I wonder if the Direct TV 36" international dish can be used for FTA.

I don't know how good they are but the prices I saw on Ebay are not bad at all.

Is there any particular brand name linear LNB? Seems Invacom QPH 031 (Cir/Lin combo) is a good option but don't know if the dish comes with a 40mm LNB clamp.

I like the Invacom lnbf the snh-031 and the qph-031 are both good.as for the dish having a 40 mm bracket I don't know but you should be able to get something that works.

yes that is a good lnb. as for a bracket if you can not find one you make one pretty easy. It does not look as nice but it can work.
