Please stop refering to the praising of our Almighty Creator in such a degrading way! I'm sure you can find a more RESPECTFUL way to refer to the worshipping of our God, the One who created you as well!
 
saaierwaaier : Much as you take issue with it.. those channels are best described in that way... but take the discussion to the relevant part of the forum... not here.
 
No, they are best described in the following ways: "Christian Channels" or "Religious Channels". Not "happy clappy" or "holy moly stuff"!!!
And this is the right forum to discuss this issue - we are discussing the Christian TV channels on the "huge big satellite dishes", right? And this is the TV forum right?
 
saaierwaaier: we are trying to find out how to get other channels except christian,religious, greek, crap channels.

I agree. Despite being a evangelical Christian myself ... trying to find blasphemy/anti-Christian in everything in life is rather pointless.

On the question of Free-To-Air satellite, I have discussed this in another thread. A company in Pretoria offers installation and sells the equipment if you want to DIY. Link: http://mybroadband.co.za/vb/showthread.php?t=155523.

The URL has the channels that have signal footprint over Africa. It's best to have a dual-satellite setup. C-Band and Ku-Band. A motorised dish it also advisable.

BIG Ugly Dish

I generally find a lot of interesting stuff in a magazine titled

"TeleSatellite and Broadband" available at the CNA -- also comes with the SATCO DX Satellite and Channel finding software

Describes and explains quite a lot of stuff including motorised dishes , dual C-Band / KU Band feedhorns etc etc

Lot of Moslem guys are installing these big dishes to pick up a bunch of Satellites broadcasting to the Middle East -- NileSat ArabSat etc for the Arabic channels

You can also find some info over at the SARL forums specifically dealing with Satellite.

I have not yet been able to find a Website / Forum / Place of info specifically for South African FTA.

ie. Some place where you can get detailed info on what equipment you need , where you can get it from / how to set it up / what you can watch.

I am led to believe that there is a LOT more out there than just "Christian- Channels" and other assorted stuff that no-one is interested in watching.

( assuming you have a big enough dish and the correct equipment. )

@Maestro -- sounds like you have some experience with this stuff ???
