I haven't tried any of the CAMs as they are not available easily. Satellite feeds depends on your dish size etc.,

Do you mean Spacelinkindia the dish manufacturer ?

Though they have mentioned in their website www.spacelinkindia.com that they have 107 (see the figure there) dealers Nation wide, they only sell from their corporate office at Delhi as I got a mail from them and they donot have dealers at Maharastra. ... See the mail below ....

============================================
No dealer would keep these dish antenna in Maharashtra .
You will have to buy them directly from us .
1.2m availability currently is not there . It will come in production in second week November .
Price of 80cm is Rs. 800=00 + tax ( Ready stock )
Price of 120cm is Rs. 3750=00 + tax . Pls wait until Nov. 15 th .
Freight charges are extra . Other charges extra ( Octroi etc. )

Hi Friends

Me also want a DVB-S PCI card from technisat (Skystar 2 DVB-S PCI card New Version v2.6D with USB IR Receiver) which is approx $55 USD including VAT for non-European residents offered by the best seller in this category worldwide www.dvbshop.net

But the problem is the postal cost is tooooooooooooo high for us, even 2/3 times the cost of the card !!!

If you know any shop in India for the same card plz share the details here.

rgds,

It depends on your buget of how much you can spend on this thing. If you are intrested in DTH then go for TATA Sky or Dish tv or FTA DD DTH. For that the TATASKY or Dish TV would give you the complete set. Not much in KU band except these dth services. If you are going for C band then buy atleast a 6 feet dish for receiving satellites with Indian footprint or a minimum of 12 feet for out of foot print receptions.

Just you can browse thru NET Indian Mfrs-MCBS,Beetel,BEL etc.So many imported STBs are also available like Alfabox,Coship etc.Technosat is a good one but not avlbl in India.Technosat,Technomate,Manhattan,Topfield,Drea mbox,Humax etc are of good value but are costly and have to be imported.

(1)Please suggest me a good brand & model of a FTA receiver with Blind search facility available in Chennai. Where can I buy? Address pls?

**BharatPremi** · 03-11-2006

hello,

URPradhan,
why dont u try dish from mcbs. they have ready stock of 1.0, 1.2 and even 1.8m ku dish. their 1.2 dish will cost you around rs.3500.

PCI DVB card are also available from mcbs/apnadth, though they just sell twinhan ones, not skystar

**thuvarakan** · 06-11-2006

Dear EuroBox 9700 owners: Could you please confirm that ur STB has "blind search" facility. I like to buy one with this option.

momoshana · 06-11-2006

As far as new software updates are considered, StarSat SR-X550D is very good. New updates are available every fornight. You can download new software from http://www.satdw.com.

550D and its clones are available in north east part of india at around Rs 4500/-.

It opens Dream TV on AGILA 2 and B4U movies on PAS 7/10. So Enjoy FREE

No it has not.Dont go for EB 9700+CI as there is no s/w update.Better you avoid Eurostar/Euroboxes.

Hi Mr BharatPremi

Thank you for ur words.
But CAN the ApnaDTH/MCBS products like DVB-S PCI card and the Ku-band dish will be same as Skystar/Twinhan/TechnoTrend and SpacelinkIndia respectively ?

With their pkg they are giving 0.6/0.7 dB LNBF, rather you can get 0.2/0.3 dB LNBFs from market easily for better picture quality.

Thay are just good for moeny and for basic TV viewing experience, not for BEST quality as per the trend, atleast I hope so.

Thanx

Hi friend

Ya, I know every DVB-S PCI card LOOKS alike of same size and dimension,but as you agree the QUALITY differes. This is where I can not compromise.
