I got it the same way but my srt 4950h is not opening the Pvu channels. What is wrong? Is 4922a opening all of them with key.
It's not opening all the channels. It opens only 4.

Hello Cheny,
the picture quality of the receiver is good but the present user interface look like the old Strong receiver (SRT4650). The user interface from the previous patch look awesome. SRT 4950 series are nice receivers but the problem is that most of the users are not conversant with the receiver.
Yeah,u are right

Just my take on dstv and canal+africa,in 2010,i made a bold decision to get a 3.2m dish.for d first yr i use jsc sport card on nilesat.d following yr i moved to hortbird with tlink hd 4 another yr.In d last 3yrs i only spend 7000 per yr to watch what dstv want to milk me at d rate of 11000per month and i still enjoy fta along,irib,tv national,many more and what i spent in d last 5yrs is not up to dstv subscriptn for 2yrs with dish instalatn,so more cash 2 spend on other things.The koko is to be free from dstv,i encourage us all 2 work towards getting our own BUD.NOTE:I STARTED USING BUD IN A RENTED APARTMENT B4 MOVING TO MY OWN HOUSE,SO DONT LET THAT BE A PROBLEM.

Waooh, I finally gat Intelsat 20c at 68.5, such a sweet savour. Easiest way around is attached a Ku lnb, track Intelsat 20ku remove the lnb, attached the c band and you will surely hit green

I have heard about CTL where you will only have to pay 3200 month and can access all EPL matches. Anybody who know about this should enlighten us

I cannot get Sony package on Intelsat 20C, the highest signal I got was 68%, I have twicked the lnb as much as I could but Sony no show. Others are showing, HBO, CNN, WUTN, NHk etc.
Could be because of dish size. I got everything on it with 2.4m. It has audio but no video. Aljezera is 90%, Sony Kix, Mix etc is 78% but my decoder is messing up my efforts. Just found out that it has stopped accepting Keys. Even TV3 biss is not working on it. I will do factory reset tomorrow. I tried creating new Keys inside SECA where other powervu Keys are located in 4950h to no avail. But I noticed that the update didn't come with Sony Six Keys, it should be inputted.

CTL connects bein sport and some other FTA to show movies , sports n what have you. they have an mpeg4 decoder like startimes own, ahuja/panorama antennal, guess they still use down converter.......

@brainy02. Yes CTL is very stable.But as pofolo said,their services are confined to few cities like Enugu (HQ),PH,Ibadan
Re: Free To Air Satellite Tv General Thread by Nobody: 3:22am On Aug 10, 2015
Blexxonmak what is the best satellites for motorised setup alignment?
I normally use 68.5e and 22w
Re: Free To Air Satellite Tv General Thread by blexxonmak(m): 3:42am On Aug 10, 2015
@EMMAACHILE. Yes you can use 68.5E and 22W as reference points.And track with Ku band as C band is very compromising.

Hello abohwun,
you should follow this process that I illustrated with picture to solve your problem. When you get to the third step, press left side volume button on your remote for the language to change from Arabic to English.

with strong mpeg2 receiver. you will need aljazeera TP 4064H upto to 74-78% before Sony package will show:aljazeera TP is stronger by +27% against Sony package 3900H...
