Hi guys.

Been served proper by qsat q13g Chinese decoder but after reading this thread i feel like i have missed it all, i am using a standard dstv dish which i believe is pointed only to dstv channels because as much as i try to scan fta all i get is 2-3 cctv ones, advise if 1; getting a different dish pointing different direction would work on the same decoder ?

@Rankaz can the Dstv dish be used on the Beinsports decoder or have to buy another one?

Thanks Bro for sharing with us your knowledge on this.

I bought a hotpoint set top box at Tuskys and on connecting to my Tv the quality is so poor inaona like those pirated dvds so I have reverted to analogue which is very clear. Anybody with such experience?

The digital tv will still receive the same poor quality signals from our broadcasters. in a digital tv, the tuner is intagrated nd so an eternal STB is unnecessary. that said, I do not think hotpoint is a good choice. I have had no experience with it myself but everywhere I look online, almost everyone seems to be complaining about it. If it was up to me, I'd have gone for either CrystalView, Rockdale or Jolini.

Thanks, I will OLX it!

The decoder you own has an inbuilt account for opening channels on 36E. Get a DISEQC switch and a 90cm dish, point it to 36E and enjoy..You can also purchase DQCAM and enjoy additional English channels on 7W. I am mentioning it because you already got the hardware.

Hehehe...hapana kasirika mblo. You're unlikely to find a satellite with exclusively English channels. Hata za marekani na uingereza zina mchanganyiko wa lugha tofauti tofauti. What we should be talking of perhaps is the kind of channels/genre that you wanna watch i.e whether sports, movies, documentaries, news, cartoons, etc.

Otherwise, as I said, Nilesat is primarily used by Arabic broadcasters for their predominantly Arabic audiences so the channels there are predominantly in Arabic language. For me, the fat attraction was mainly for news as I was tired with the mediocre serving of alehandro, oga and politics of our local channels. On nilesat, you should be able to get CNN, BBC, EuroNews, NHK world, France 24, Bloomberg News, CCTV News, AlEtejah English, Press Tv, and AlJazeera English. The movie channels at the same location keep changing especially with the departure of MBCs first to Eutelsat 8 West A and later to Yahsat 1 A.

Hii ASAS namalisa sisi. To imagine I was on the verge of getting the ADMC too. I think I'll try Badr 4/5/6 just for curiosity's sake. Ikiingia mzuri I may consider giving the myHD package a trial.
