How long does it take to download software over the air?

I started a 'Update From Air' yesterday evening for my Strong srt6155 reciever via the Astra satellite. It is still downloading aprox. 16 hours later. The screen says: "Downloading Software Header".

Can anybody tell me if this is normal? Will it work i.e are Strong still doing OTA downloads. If yes how long will it take? I have never updated the reciever before. You response would be gratefully appricated.

My System: Sky UK. FTA analogue & digital satellite from 6 fixed dishes (5E/7E/9E/10E/13E/16E/ 19E/23E/28E) Pace MSS100, Echostar IP3000VA, Technomate TM-1000D, Dreambox 7020S

It shopuld take a few minutes no more. You may find the OTA updates are no longer being transmitted (for example Echostar dropped their 13E OTA's years ago)
