Does this give you free satellite channels? Or you do have to have dish network or directv or something?

Yes you can if it is a Dish Network LNB on the end. Dish's LNB will work on either Dish or Direct I've been told but Direct LNB only works for Direct. (LNB is the "eye" on the end where connections are made)

No! It will only pick up channels from a FTA satellite dish with a Ku or C BAND LNBF.

It works with Dish network or Direct tv. I use Dish Network, and when I move about in the motor home, I call Dish and tell them my new location so that I can get the local channels. There is no charge for this service.

No. This dish is only compatible with dish network. I know there are others compatible with direct tv but I can only answer for this one.

If you sign up for direct tv than yes http://www.directv.com/international/filipino. If you do they should be provided a dish and a satellite tuner but there will be a monthly subscription. You won't be able to get signal from actual Filipino satellites.

Yes. It has it's own built in digital tuner. All you need is a direct feed from a antenna or cable. However, most providers are shifting over to digital signals that require their decoder box in order to view those channels. So your available channels are limited to channels that have not been converted by the cable or satellite company yet. Antenna reception will pick up any broadcast digital signal. Hope that helps.

No, you must use a cable card from your cable provider. With the cable card you will receive the digital channels you are subscribed to. I have been using the 4 channel receiver now for at least one year and it works great.

I'm using DirecTV with mine so I'm not sure if you'll require an antenna to receive the local channel feed.

Hi Loretta, It sure does and a lot more in the channel store. Obviously there is a monthly charge, just like Amazon, Netflix, and many others. There really are a ton of free channels too. Many can be found in the Roku channel store and a lot of "private channels" (channels not listed in the Roku channel store) can be found at sites such as:http://catastrophegirlsrokuchanneldata.blogspot.com/ I dumped my $100.00/month cable company and never looked back!

Hi, yes you will need an antenna to get local channels. If you don't need local channels, then "no". We do have ports that you can add third party devices to television (dvd/directv).

Only for fee based satellite reception. Dish TV however, will let you activate or deactivate whenever you want so you only pay when you are using it. As a side note, you can get local stations when you are on the road by calling in with the zip code of where you are at the time. Only when activated tho. Hope this answers your questions.Lee

Your system is set up through your box and programming. What local channels you get will be part of that programming and this tripod will have no bearing on what you can see. If you currently have a P.R. local channel you will get it no matter where you set your system up as long as your dish can "see" the satellites you are connected to.
