It looks like you are hooked up to Direct TV satellite
I am writing this note from ksa. I have been getting Surya and its associated channels (free to air) through NSS 703 satellite. since one month I am not getting these channels in my apartment and I have been told that the Channel frequency and the Satellite has changed recently. In view of this I would like to know the new frequency details as well as the Satellite reference. Thanks and regards shaji mathew
Switching channels would depend on several things. If you get your channels from a cable company, you probably can not switch them. Depending on where you are located, a dish or satellite system might be able to switch them. If you are getting your channels "off air" such as through a TV antenna, then it would depend on where you are located and how close you are to a TV tower that supplies the TV station's signal.
When it comes to price and number of channels, satellite TV is the way to go since it is cheaper and you get double the amount of channels as cable. However cable may still be your best choice if you watch certain area sports teams since they may be on cable tv stations only, such as Comcast in Philadelphia.
I believe that satellite dishes do provide better reception than cable service. I believe this because satellite dishes are bigger and getting their signals from huge satellites in space. They have less interference factors that affect them than cable service does and they are less likely to go off air as often happens with cable service. Satellite dishes also offer all HD channels where as with cable you have to pay an extra fee for HD many times. I think that satellite dishes receive stronger signals and are better equipped to interpret those signals than cable service is. I also believe that the satellite signals are jumbled less often than cable tv and because of this you get a clearer picture and more channels.

Get satellite TV.
Generally, it would cost the same as getting satellite radio for your car.

Incredibly low. Many millions to one. See related link for a picture of a satellite that did make it back to Earth.
