4DTV Has NEVER been hacked.4DTV uses the same encryption technology as Direct TV. Their are some "black" modded boards you can get if you find one that are supost to get channels..I have never seen one I think they are a BS myth
no a FTA receiver will never get 4DTV programing however with a c-band dish you can get a few more channels I still have my BUD and plan on installing this spring so I can get those as well. I will at that time also get the 4DTV back subscribed too..
