My 3m C-band dish has begun peeling, so i wanted to spray/paint it. But while at it, i thought it wud do gud if i could get something that wud improve signal strength as well - so is there some magic paint i cud use to for this purpose? Of course it shudn't sacrifice protection for the dish (we...

I have a Manhattan Plaza ST-550 which is PVR ready. I've spoken to Manhattan and they advise using a Maxtor or Samsung hardrive. Problem is the Maxtor I had blew after a year and I can't get hold of a Samsung. Is anyone using a manahattan with another type of hardrive - and does it work fine...

MYtv is available in all southern African countries as a pay service but does not have rights to operate in SA, so you can't subscribe there. The regulator in SA has opened the process for applications for more satellite pay-tv services. but it will be some time before anyone is really up and...

I understand that it should be everyone, but keys aren't allowed on this forum!

I'm looking for BISS keys on Arabsat 2C. Frequency 3786 V Can u pls PM me. *Admin: I hope this is fine. I checked the rules, nothing about PM-ing keys.

So it appears I'd be wasting my money. There's not much in Nagra and they'll probably be going to more secure encryptions soon. Guss i'll have to stick with the fta channels. Thanks for your help.

I intend buying a Dragon Cam with Phoenix programmer. Before I do this, I want clarity on the use of keys. Will I have to get k*ys for the channels I wish to watch or will the CAM open the channels on its own. I am not in Europe so I fear it might be a problem getting k*ys for the channels I...

Thanks Rolfw

Thanks Toppervte33h. In general, do software updates(from manufacturers) include all of the features in the latest update, or would you still have to run through each update? I'm sure it's same for the Manhattan. I would have tried them, if just they'd care to ever reply!

Come on guys!!!:-rofl2

HI I intend ugrading my receiver software (Manhattan - Plaza ST550) for the first. But there are already various versions of upgrades out from Manhattan. Do I have to upload each of these updates individually for all of the features to take effect, or can I simply update with the latest version...

You cant pick up Intelsat 902 in India. But you can watch Jame-Jam TV and Al-Alam on Asiasat 2 (100.5E). It's in C-band though.

Guys thanks for this. But I still do not understand. I previously tried upgrading my system with a cable (9pins on the one end and 25 on the other), but it seemed to do nothing and there was no transfer of data. Is this the right cable or is there another? I unfortunately don't understand the...

I'd like to update my Manhattan Plaza ST550 but need clarity on the RS232 cable. None of the computer shops seem to know what I'm talking about. Can anyone descrbe the cord. How many pins should it have on either side. Is it a male/female cable or male/male or female/female??? Also, when I...
