Have you ever had one of those days when your boss yelled at you for no reason at all, your mother in law called up and your kid brother got busted for overdoing the speed limit? At the end of the day all you want to do is put your feet and rest your head awhile before you turn n the TV in the express hope that you might not have to mull over your own problems if you could just escape into the comforting realms of the TV world.

So with all those great intentions in mind you turn on the TV and you finally find out that your fabulous day isn’t over yet. All you had to do is switch on the TV and you find that instead of a good movie your TV screen is spewing out static and noise, a result of the storm that was brewing in the night.

It’s at times like this that you begin to seriously contemplate suicide. Have no fear, free to air is here. What exactly is free to air and how do you intend to get it? Well free to air is basically a technology that allows you to access the world’s leading TV channels for free without having to pay for anything except the receiver set and the free to air paraphernalia that is a one time investment that usually does not exceed 50 dollars.

I’m sure that by now you want to know more about the FTA receiver and how you can get one. All in good time my friend. Let’s take one thing at a time.

A free to air receiver is something like a radio set. By tuning a radio either electronically or manually to the right frequency you can listen to the best radio stations that are available. You don’t have to pay for the radio channels and all you need to do is buy a radio.

Similarly the free to air receiver functions in much the same way. The free to air receiver is basically a satellite transmissions receiver that is programmed to receive all the unencrypted or unscrambled free to air satellite transmissions. It is usually able to decode the MPEG-2 compression protocol.

However one limitation that a free to air satellite receiver suffers from is that there are certain brands that are unable to decode the satellite transmissions of the Dish network and the DirecTV Satellite programming. To ensure that you don’t end up with a receiver of this kind always go in for the Viewsat or Coolsat receiver.

Usually a FTA receiver looks like a Dish Network or DirecTV receiver. Usually they can only be used with a TV set and not with a computer. Some versions do exist that can be used which are usually compatible only with a computer but such sets are only useful when you don’t have a TV set.

Whatever you decide Viewsat and Coolsat are the bets options and you should for either one of them. They offer the most features and back up support at the right prices.
