Keep in mind it is a hobby- not a substitute for cable or conventional satellite. And there's a lot of crap to filter through to get to the good stuff. And the last time I checked the only US Networks available were the Alaska feeds; so prime time shows would be on later than our Pacific feeds.
The one I used just worked like a regular receiver attached to a regular pointed expressvu dish.
