Feed hunting is a fun part of this hobby for many, it's not all about watching TV! and if no one did any feed hunting we would never find any new channels that stay in the clear! I don't have as much time as I used too, but I do still enjoy scanning the sky's for the benefit of me and all the members here.
Look at even some of the ones that don't stay such as major PPV Boxing events that would cost maybe $50-60 people that cannot afford that would be over the moon to catch a major fight or UFC,, even the Bellator fights are goodies..or Big Football games, Hockey.....
With feed hunting we also gather some good info on why some cannot lock on to a certain signal where others can, could be dish size, location or a possible ARC that is not aligned correct and we all learn from this. We also gather info on what boxes scan faster than others, and what boxes mis certain TP's etc etc..
I would encourage people to feed hunt when they have the free time and you can bet finding a good feed is appreciated by all members here.
