Yes, you can.

Look at www.satcodx.com or www.lyngsat.com at G10R. There
you will find information on what you can see for free.
> What would I need to do the same with a standalone receiver?
Any decent MPEG-2/DVB FTA receiver will work. FWIW, I've
had terrible luck with Traxis brand. Higher than 50% failure
rate. I've had excellent luck with the BEC brand- no failures.

Resellers will try to sell you a 76Cm dish, but don't buy
into it. They're very marginal and extremely hard to aim
properly. Look for a 96Cm (about 3 feet) or larger.
