    I've gotten myself an 80" dish with a single lnb on it, so going to play around with it pointing it at different sats. 19"/13" and whatever else I can find. Would like to know people's opinions, for FTA only are these setups worth it?

    I know sites like lyngsat will list all available channels but I'd like to know what common fta channels people watch/recommend (keeping it clean btw)
