Perhaps the lack of information has put people off replying ralphmagno
Maybe nobody has heard of the decoder you mention, I certainly haven't, as far as I was aware ESPN classic sports was encrypted in Via 2.5, are you therefore saying that an orbit decodes via 2.5, or are we looking at somewhere other than Hotbird???? as I said too little information to make it an interesting post, now your second post I am sure will attract interest if it becomes reality. :)

I think RM is after Orbit Network on Arabsat 3A at 26E. Its Mediaguard 2 but requires a dedicated Orbit receiver.

hi got the box from a dealer in germany
box was free but paying a few euro per month more
will set it up on a 1.25 dish here.
paid 268 euro for 6 months

next project will be a 4 meter dish to see if e-4 disney and bbc will come in the naples area
