let me try to clarify it in others words I am looking for any attena
that can pull down any satelite in the area I would be in (boca Raton,
Fla. 33433) that would be broadcasting anything that I can picup on my
TV or Radio (if there things other than that my I would like to know
about please reply.  The only problem with some of the things
suggested seems to be limiting my choice of satalites even though they
do offer much more then one.

Since I got additional information from an outside source.  As O
understand it now that cband is fading out on the individaual viewer
and cband is now manily for cable, etc.companies.  If I have a HD TV I
would be better off going to voom.

Is this a coorect assumation?  Are there other services out there that
I might be interested in (your question is probably like what?, I
really don't know, if could get list, I could answer like what?)

I am pretty sure that internet acess probably might interested if I
don't upload alot, as I understand uploading is done by phone line
(unless I get dsl or cable for uploading) is satellite dish faster
then cable or DSL soon I guess we will have fiber optics via horizon I
guess that is the answer for internet and satellite wait for fiber
optics. Am I right?

HELP!!

Would you like to receive "C band signals"? Toroidal, as mentioned in
my previous comment does not "receive C band signals":

Here are "the most popular settings" used in the "North America area"
(in case this is where you live):

It may be helpful if you would indicate which particular satellites
you have in mind:
