My System: Satellite Dish 1.6m Hotbird 13E, DreamBox 7000S with Gemini 4.5.0; Dish 1.2m Amos 4W, Nokia 9600S; Nokia 9800S; Hauppauge Nexus-S PCI Card


He battled for 3 days against the Tux and won! Hurray!!

He is now coming back next week so I wanted to ask you whether I can activate the nova subscription before the dish is installed so that we can check on the day whether the 60cm dish will be OK.

The question really is whether Nova can activate the card without a satellite dish being installed or whether you need the dish to get the 'activation signal'. Thanks
Why do you want to activate it?
Leave it until the installation is complete.
You need a receiver with Irdeto support (CAM Slot) and a well installed dish with LNB and coaxial cable connecting to the receiver.
What I don't understand is why it has taken so long?
Usually installation can take just few days. And now he is off for another week?
