With a satellite dish, a satellite receiver, a digital TV tuner card, you can watch satellite tv shows on your pc. It effectively replaces the set-top box with higher quality and flexibility. The signal will be more stable and you can have more initiative.You might use the TV tuner card, such as TBS DVB-S PCI tuner card, it allows user simultaneously receive dual DVB-S2/S TV channels, such as TBS 6981 PCIe DVB S2 dual tuner card, this enables the user to watch one channel from one transponder/satellite while recording another channel from a second transponder/satellite. Alternatively the user can use one channel for data download while watching TV on another channel at the same time
