Small investments in hardware can pay big dividends that include free radio and television programming. The government mandated shutoff of Analog television signals is scheduled to be completed on June 12th and many are discovering a greatly improved menu of local off-air television viewing options. Multicasting has added news, entertainment and educational channels to the previously limited number of major network and independent stations. Access to these added signals can be as simple as adding a digital converter to your television set. Upgrades to your local off-air antenna system may yield more channels and better signal quality. Skyvision has compiled a large number of resources on their website to assist others in identifying what channels may be available in your television market.

Another source of free television and radio is from MPEG-2 Free-To-Air digital satellite reception. Simple systems using a 30" dish can access over 200 channels from around the world on a satellite such as Galaxy 19, Ku-band at 97 West. Motorizing such an antenna can easily double the number of channels available, and we also offer large dish systems for C-band and combined C/Ku-band reception of still more satellites.

Russia Today, Al Jazeera, World Radio Network and other stations provide news and information from respected journalists from around the world in English. Foreign language broadcasts feature a bit of everything, including Spanish, Portuguese, Arabic, Chinese and many other languages. Major US networks can be available to locations lacking local broadcast affiliates. Hundreds of audio services deliver not only music in many formats, but live radio broadcasts spanning the globe. Those wanting religious programming will find dozens of choices awaiting them.
