IRIB 20E

IRIB channels are known to leave a satellite without notice although the 20east slot in C band has a better chance than other slots in Ku
 
Well I have a fully detached house, which there are no neighbours within 20m from the house.

It only needs 1 nosy parker who takes a dislike to the big dish to bring the council planning guys knocking on the door......
 
This has probably been mentioned before, satellite dishes are banned in Iran so who exactly are these channels for and why they wasting money on satellite bandwidth?
 
Its a rule that is widely ignored, and even when the mullahs do have a crackdown the folk who have their dishes confiscated just go and get another one.
 
Terrestrial distribution is done by satellite. 27 seconds in you can see one.

 
Its been mentioned before here, there is a documentary about it.

Satellite TV is illegal in Iran but it is also the nation's secret obsession. An indulgence which has seeped into every pore of Iranian life. Satellite dishes are everywhere; illicitly crowding apartment rooftops, teetering on high-rise windowsills, even sheltering from dust storms behind remote nomadic tent villages. But ever careful to protect the populace from immoral outside influence, the Morality Police force entry into homes



 
I've seen it before and its quite fascinating, sometimes we don't realise how lucky we are.
