My System: Sky UK. FTA analogue & digital satellite from 5 fixed dishes (5E/7E/9E/13E/16E /19E/23E/28E) Pace MSS100, Echostar IP3000VA, Technomate TM-1000D, Dreambox 7020S  The last noble sat warrior to fly the olden flag of Analogue | Please dont type all in capitals - its considered TO BE SHOUTING! Unless the PowerVu decoders are still authorised on the Scientific Atlanta databases for AFN they are useless to you.

| I have AFN and belive me i know who their system works, Even if you was in the us army yourself they will not authorize the box unless you brought it from military exchange and if you did they have a record of the serial numbers and what military exchange it was sold from in their POWERVU connect database

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!! |
I think Hot Bird 13E have many AFN channels, but you are probably thinking of another satellite perhaps? If it is Hot Bird, then get a suitable dish size.
