Can someone kind of give me the rundown on how this stuff works.

What kind of receiver should I get if one wants to get DN?

Does it need to run through a computer or are the receivers stand alone?

How many satellite dishes will be needed?

Where do I get programming for the FTA receiver?

Basically I have a two bedrooms and a living room I want to set up, advice on how to do that.

How long will FTA last? I mean, how long until DN does something to make it so I can't see programming anymore.

I use to do DAVE testing but gave that up about 2 years ago when letters started flying.

Thanks

What sites can I go to to get the software to dycript Charlie? I just bought a card off of ebay for my computer a VISION PLUS PCI DVB BLACKBIRD 1020a. Any suggestions, thoughts and help on getting me up and running would be nice.

Thanks again
