@figment,
That fairly used 1.8m dish is still ok. All you need to do is refurbish it. That thing you see peeling off is the surface aluminium foil which can be replaced by fibre makers.

what you can get is 2.6 fibre and it's better than 2.4 pan. yes you can get hotbird with 2.4m in lagos. if yo uhave the cash and space, just close your eyes and go for a 3m instead.

Hello Sir George:
Please, what is difference between and MPEG4 receiver like SRT4669x and an HD receiver? I ask this because HD receivers are supposed to be MPEG4, DVB – S2 and the SRT4669x has these characteristics. Still it is not considered HD

I greet with a big "idobale" to all the "gurus" and all the selfless giants in da house.
You wont believe it, l have been reading from "Season 1, now up to Season 4!
The more l read, the more l enjoy, the more you guys write and its so wonderful that Naija have people like you!
As soo proud of y'all.

I am a "Cable box" (Eurovox, Dreambox, DigiVox, e.t.c)  person as its only Cable we have in my current place.

I just want to appreciate u guys for now.
Lovely World cup ahead.

Re: Official Thread Of Free To Air Satellite Tv (part 4) by lastpage: 9:35am On May 14, 2010
^^^^^^Na so u like me reach? cry crygrin
Naaaah, currently in U.K, West Sussex area.

I am planning to land Lagos in a few weeks time and am wondering how l am going to ensure l dont miss my footie!
Am still looking for help on which STBox to buy for Lagos?
From discussions between "gurus" like you, George, Olofofo, e.t.c l am leaning towards "Starsat" or "Strong" but not sure which is better in the long run. I wouldn't mind spending a little extra just to get something less stressful as "Madam" is in on the gist as well grin

From my own little experience, apart from getting the correct alignment on your dish, l think he choice of box is the next crucial thing. Am l right?

And l am amazed at those DIY "engineering" that George did in Season 3 or early season 4! Shows loadz of ingenuity.

Honestly, u guys are "Da Bomb"!

pito, can SD work like HD.
@ Obnelly

SD can not decode HD.
What you should understand is that you have DVB-S, MPEG-2 and DVB-S2, MPEG4 which are transmission streaming/broadcasting format,
while SD and HD refers to Picture quality in layman's terms. Now with MPEG4 compression, more channels can be transmitted in a single frequency than MPEG2.

Now lets take a look at Standard Definition (SD) and High Definition (HD), to cut a long narration short, for you to view TV there are dots on the TV screen, (approximately 625 lines) now as the screen gets bigger, the picture gets poor. Also if you view some standard definition pictures on HD most little details will be seen.

The discovery of DVB-S2, MPEG4 coincided with HD, so it became associated. Previously, there was a problem with transmitting in HD because only one channel can be carried by a single transponder at a time, whereas the same transponder could be used to carry multiple SD signals.

to cut the long narration. some satellite receiver manufacturers already started manufacturing boxes that could receive DVB-S2 SD signals also there are DVB-S HD receivers but they where discontinued since it was not good economically from the manufacturers point as more people where shifting already to HD.

Currently all Multi-TV signals are SD transmitted in DVB-S2, MPEG4 QPSK format that's why it can be received with SD decoders but no video only Audio while Daarsat has only one HD Channel "Luxe TV HD" the rest are in SD but transmitted in DVB-S2, MPEG4 8PSK .

Don't forget that almost all tellys in nigeria are SD, except you own a Plasma or LCD TV
