    Yes, you need a linear capable LNB. A larger dish is needed, 33" - 36" should work I believe. That sat is way out over the Atlantic, almost over the coast of Africa, you may not be able to see it depending on your location. If you're in the east, you may be OK. Check with www.dishpointer.com for aiming angles.

    Not sure I understand your question. There are many True-FTA sats, although nothing at 61 for North America. See www.lyngsat.com for info.

    There are many sats which carry small amounts of true FTA programming. One quick example is AMC9 which carries the oldies, see here for the programming schedule: http://www.ftacp.com/forums/showthre...ogram-Schedule
    I would strongly recommend a motor which allows you to see all sats within view. See the Lyngsat link in my earlier post for a listing of all sats and the channels carried by each.
