    Question DishTv info

    I am Tarun from Delhi, India. I am new to this DTH world and would like to get some info. I am planning to go for the dth offering from DishTv (Zee). I would like to know will I be able to watch other fta channels which are not offered by DishTv in Delhi? If yes then how? Will I need to buy a seperate lnb/receiver or the one which comes with dishtv is sufficient(universal) ?. Thanks.

    hi tarun
    so nobody have answered ur queries untill now but i ll try.
    so u r planning to buy dish tv.the offer i think u r talking is dish har chat par
    the price is INR 3990Rs for the set-top box, 60cm dish plus univeral LNB.But cable wire and installation charges are extra plus extra for any octroi or taxes.but if u can do the installation ur self u can save some hundred bucks.
    next is the package; the default package u ll get with it is dish welcome.counting 75channels.
    the channnels in this package r not so amusing u ll get all the b***sh*t
    nothing else but if spent 1000 extra u ll get all the packages frm dishTv
    a total of 110 channel according to dishtv for one year.

    I would like to know will I be able to watch other fta channels which are not offered by DishTv in Delhi?If yes then how?
    the simple answer is yes u ll be able to watch other fta channels.just point ur dish towards the satellite u want to view and tune ur recevier to the desired
    frequency and watch.but if u r not satisfied with my answer then u need to read guides in the forum and spend sum good time in understanding the satellite science.
    Will I need to buy a seperate lnb/receiver or the one which comes with dishtv is sufficient(universal) ?
    u dont need to buy any other receiver but u ll need to buy C band lnb plus dish if want C band reception and it depends on which channels u want to watch and are those channels on C band or KU band and is ur area in the satellite signal footprints.if u only want to watch KU band reception within India u dont need to buy anything extra.And the only reception of KU Band
    with 90cm dish beamed to india is NSS6.

    So I think I ve messed up enough so if u have any additional questions ask
    away in the forum we r here to help u
    Good bye

    My System: Dishtv DTH from Zee and Zenega receiver
    What agentsmith pointed out is correct . But I think they are giving 60cm dish only(earlier they were giving 60cm. I am not sure what they are giving now)

    Also you will end up seeing only what is beamed from NSS6 ie Dishtv as wellas DD Direct plus which is free.(As you cannot change the direction of dish often)
    None of these at present contains SONY as well as STAR channels(except ESPN-Star sports).
    Also in the Present Dish offer of 3990 , Receiver is their proprty We are only renting it. After One year you have to pay rent of around 120 Rs per month as rent alone. They will also sign an agreement that u will be continu as their subscribr for 5 years( these information about these offer, i gathered from my friend , Pl check the correctness)

    Once the Sky,Sun and BPCL?? start transmission I am sure that nobody will be there to watch the DISH TV unless otherwise they come up with some customer friendly and easy to use system.My advice to the members who like to take the DISH TV connection is that pls ask the delaers about all the hidden traps that may cause problems in future.

    Angry

    Yes u r correct har_3100. Also they r always telling star and sony is coming . but till now there is no information. Also when started the rate is 7000 (i took it on that scheme),they increased it to 8990 and then telling that u take it for 3990 with a discount of 5000! (and not owning the receiver) Just fooling the customers.

    My System: eternal bliss
    The Equipment STB+ DISH is OWNED by the SUbscriber and is PROPERTY of the SUBSCRIber IT IS NOT ON RENT and NEED not be returned.

    "dishtv "Har Chhat Par" scheme gives consumers more than 86 channels for Rs 3,990, which includes the cost of a digital set top box, satellite dish antenna, installation fees and subscription charges for one year" ---- www.zeetelevision.com/html/NewsCenter.asp?Content=112

    You can verify it at the toll free no also..

    and 3990 includes the cost of indtallation and all taxes...

    if somebody is asking for more he is cheating....


    so if YOUR DEALER says that is is on RENT he is lying..
