I don't know all the laws on testing either but I know for a fact people can go to jail or be fined for it.

Well who ever told you that is wrong. They cant put you in jail and they cant fine you unless they can prove you "stole" their sigal. For the most part they have never been able to prove Joe Blow down the street is "stealing" their sigal just b/c he bought a programmer and has a dish on his roof, but they have been trying like hell. And they will continue to fail in court until the FCC changes its laws on brodcast sigals.
Now its really all a dark area. DirceTV says its illegal all though they have never been able to prove them selfs in the every day court case. They have been able to get some of the very big hardware makers and dealers only b/c how they market their stuff like the way they do.
