So was checking out this option of getting a satellite capturing (DVB) card. It sounds like it can get birds like Charlie and Beverly which may have some FTA channels on it along with other FTA (free to air) channels in the Ku and C bands. The cards are as little as $90 and HDTV capable.
Seems like cards Twinhan VisionPlus 1020A, and WinTv Nexus-s and Novus-s are mentioned. Applications to use are mytheatre and progdvb. Anyway just thought I'd check it out. Any opinions?
Anything good on Ku channels in NA?

Charlie and Beverly? Never heard of those birds, and I have a list of all the birds that serve North America (and more) listed from East to West.

Last I checked there was very little by way of FTA transmittions that you would even want to capture, about 98% of C-band is encrpypted and KU band is about 80%. The stuff that isn't encrypted, you don't want. -

The cam modules don't work in NA on DTV\Dish\Bev, you can use a softcam to access "Fishnet", basically it emulates the access card, there is not one for DTV

of course, I think it should be legit if you are already paying for a subscription it could be considered another reciever and pay an additional $5 a month
