That is nice but one can still configure his/her 69 series reciever so that it will never upgrade on it own. It is simple. Just go to menu with your remote then enter pin. Scroll down to OTA menu and press ok. Change scan mode from default to user. Scroll down to satellite and change it to something like this "0.0E----", scroll down to frequency and change it to something like this "[1] 0.000 GHz". Symbol rate should remain like this "0.000 MS/s. Then save your setting. After that, your reciever will freeze then switch off your reciever from the back and switch it on again and go back to the OTA menu, press ok with your remote then press exit and your reciever will ask you "DO YOU WANT TO SAVE? Then save and your reciever will never think of upgrading through OTA. Thank you.
u have just said it all. Datz d best way out. Anyway in addition 4d newbies, wen u switch on and ur decoder starts OTA, Just switch it off then remove d lnb cable at d back. U can now switch on ur box again, it wil try to do OTA Dwnload 4some seconds and then restart and boot normally. U can now follow d steps given 2u by d guru above.. fta 4eva.

Some transponders go down during the day due to... an increase in noise power/interference due to the sun's radiation degrading satellite signals,radiation from the sun is a combination of electromagnetic waves ranging from infrared and ultraviolet rays etc, radiation from the sun is more active @11am t0 5pm..... from 7pm till morning in the absence of sun's radiation ,can have an effect on satellite signals....thereby causing satellite signal increase at night...you may increase dish size to get a good signal above threshold but this problem can't be solved

Re: Free To Air Satellite Tv General Thread by ucheo: 5:20pm On Feb 28, 2013
@ Ucheo
What model of receiver are you using? I have SRT 4930 that shows the same signs, i.e. not switching
instantaneously to another channel on another satellite in a DiSEqC system. I have changed and interchanged
cables and switches but the problem still persists. I also saw similar problems on rdi forum with owners of SRT 4930
receivers. So far I have not heard of any cure to this problem.


Bros am using Orton decoder, i will work on the diseq and also check the wiring this weekend, its weird, changing chanels and the thing is showing No signal.

it means a new software is in waiting. if you put off your deoder and put it om again it will start the download and installation of the new software. if you are not sure of the genuineness of your set select a channel that doe not belong to the mytv group, change the OTA menu from default to uer including the frequency before you put off your set. if you have put it off already then disconnect the lnb from the decorder before switching in on.

I got two dishes: 90cm facing w3c/amos5 and 65cm hooked unto multitv. How come OTA still succeeded in taking over my set up and gpt my decoder upgraded yesterday afternoon even though I don't have any of the dishes pointed to IS7/10?

@ All this is getting tighter than expected can it be w3c&multi tv that is causing the link of the upgrade to take place in satmate house,if the OTA menu setting is not adjusted then w3c & multi is bringing the link or @ lovala are u peepin @ 36¤ ? If yes then their is fire on the mountain. So with that, the upgrade does not comes from 68¤ alone but other sat is helpin in sending harmful file to our STB {BEWARE ENEMY AT WORK !} CYBER WARFARE HAD BEGUN!.@ all in other part of Africa comfirm this so we can do rough survey of this attack .over!

Re: Free To Air Satellite Tv General Thread by GeorgeD1(m): 9:27am On Mar 01, 2013
@all,
Confirmed new channels (clear) on Eutelsat 36A @36E. I got mine different from Sammu
so maybe these new TPs may have just popped up after his post:

11862H 275000sr and 11881H 275000

AIT, Channels TV, Eurosport News, Silverbird, NTAi, Soundcity, ETC

Maybe its a feed or big brother could be up to their usual dirty tricks.

Anyhow, enjoy while it lasts! cool
Re: Free To Air Satellite Tv General Thread by microgiant: 9:32am On Mar 01, 2013
All PayTV providers upgrade their receivers from time to time and it is normally done OTA. Multi-TV is also selling Strong Decoders, I believe big brother must be threatening them plus the dog has been chewing mercilessly all bones thrown at it. Decoder upgrading is twofold here, one is to take out pirate boxes, two is to close the gate that gives access to dogs for a free meal. grin
