@Sirius users,
A new channel, Walf TV has appeared on the Globecast TP, 12605. Well, not an FTA channel. Encrypted - in Viaccess, I guess. Check their website at _http://www.walf.sn_. Also located on NSS 7 at 22.0°W.

@ecowas4all

I was able to pick some channels without the di-electric on 68.5. And I realised that the transponders work on both polarities.

@Salamander
Great. Like you said we keep stretching the limit, i finished researching the D²/13d formula and i am ready to gun down that Focal Point, when you and Sathob are ready lets meet at Abdulai's with tapes for measuring. Maybe we go with the Fuji? I wish the digisat would have been around. I'll be coming with all my LNBs too.

@CaptainUS
I checked CNN its still at 62% on 53X series so you should be getting good signal

@Fofo
My Bad.
Peace

@enitan
Got you clearly sir! , jus dey book down my own ticket

@pitodenz,
Thanks for the suggestion. Actually I was thinking along those lines too.
I will talk to him directly to see how he can get the items for me like he
did for toxnaija. That way I can be sure that I'm getting the original stuff.

@c1r2o3s4s5,
The can-do spirit is what keeps us ticking in this thread. I'm happy you eventually
succeeded.
Welcome on board.

And, you have such an unusual name, na wao

@c1r2o3s4s5
if you need to open etv on 68.5 degree east, you will need strong decoder srt 4663x.  Your fstv decoder is conax embedded, it cant open encrypted channels except those lock with conax.  I also happen to subscribe to fstv when they are on, I still have their decoder and smart card with me. welcome to the world of FTA.

@twinstaiye,
I remember we were on this starsat stuff some time back.
Please include my name in the list because I am still interested.
You can send your account details to my mailbox.

Bros, this your offer na wao. Are you sure this is the right forum to make this kind of advertisement?
I don't mean to be rude, but you should have checked the name of the thread properly before posting.
This is official FTA thread and not 'official DSTV addicts' thread. If we were so hot on dstv, none of us
would bother coming here.
Or, are you trying to rope us back into a web that most of us have escaped from?

@ Ecowas4all,

Thanks I will tweak my lnb during the weekend.You may want to check this link for the focal length calculation http://www.satellitehelp.com/installation_index.asp

I used it last week and it was very helpful. It's D²[sup][/sup]/16d

@Sathob,
Thanks for the link.I called the   dish guy yesterday

goerge D,
Noted. I will get in touch with you. But I must warn you that there are starsat decoder in Nigeria that are cheaper than the one this guy is sending over.  It all bore down to risk.  I prefer the one all the way from abroad than the one in Nigeria.  Same goes with the person who needed the two I am working on now.  I said this so that some people will not think I am profiting from this deal. That is why i deleted my earlier post on this.

@ecowas4all

That's good. I will see my schedule for the weekend and will let you know

@twinstaiye,
I understand, but you shouldn't have deleted the post. Nobody is acusing you of profiteering.
Besides, anybody who knows it's worth will still buy, irrespective of whatever price the cloned version
is being sold here in nigeria.

Oga moderator please what is the price of the Starsat decorder you want to get?,pls mail it to my box ifychuk@gmail.com.

@ oga moderator, kindly get across to biggjoe to start a new thread but under lock and key for the continuation, and that will be the season 3 of this wonderful and most frequent thread on nairaland. I notice that, we cover nothing less than a page per day and since it has been said a thread should not exceed 100pages, so i guess within the next 21days, season 2 would have been over. i foresee a season 3 of greater findings than season 2. season 1 was mainly on small dishes and emphasis was on RDV, but season 2 was all on echo,abracadabra, a discovery of adewest and who knows what we stand to gain in season 3,maybe a transformation of enitan2002 to eniwest lol, watching whats going up in heaven? i cant just wait 4 d start of season 3 of dis wonderful series.

@ twins,olofofo,babaegun, anyone that thinks u guys want to make any profit on any deal being organise by any of u guys should be taken to a mental institution or better still take a look at your profiles on facebook.

@CaptainUS
Thanks For Correction that was a typo

@ enitan
@ ALL
Hello my brother glory be to God in the highest for making you to be on your feet again many people have gone beyond with that little ailments but praise God you are bouncing to His glory. Yes, I quite support you on that suggestion to oga moderator that this session should be closed and moreso a new session should be declared so that we can project discover new grounds. Over to you Mr Moderator. Well I dont know coz new software release is nt working ( could it be that it has not been activated or what ?? have checked crosattt ? nothingany one with useful ideas.

@enitan,
Season 3 so soon? Sounds appealing to me though. Maybe we will be shooting down
Astra 2D by then. Or could we try Galaxy 5? Star one C2? Echostar 3? Thaicom 5?
Impossible? No, never say never!

For those with strong decoders and I am sure with the latest patch, there are new keys for showtime and ART at the usual source anaimgr. let us see if they can open them and enjoy it while it lasted. Enjoy the weekend.

@moderator

did you say sure? there are no description of the files that i got.

Sadly, GTV is no more

GTV is to be liquidated, according to a Press Statement currently posted on their website: www.gtv.tv

GTV PRESS STATEMENT ON LIQUIDATION

LONDON – 30 January 2009 - Gateway Broadcast Services announced today that its Board of Directors has unanimously approved a plan to liquidate the Company.

The current financial and global crisis has severely interrupted the company’s ability to secure further funding for the continued operation of the business.

The company has worked extensively with external advisors and all internal resources to investigate, evaluate and analyze strategic alternatives for the Company to further continue to operate. In determining to approve the Company's plan of Liquidation, the board and management carefully reviewed the advice and findings.

Gateway Broadcast Services, suppliers of the GTV service to subscribers across Africa has over the last 2 years invested a total of US$200 million and created jobs and competition in the 22 markets. The economic crisis that has emerged globally over the last few months has caused excessive demands on the business.

With immediate effect the service will be withdrawn.

“Increased instability in global markets interrupted our ability to secure funding on an acceptable timescale and have left us no choice but to cease operations,” said a company spokesman.

“We realise the negative impact this has had on our loyal customers, creditors and staff, all of who have believed in GTV and the revolution in pay TV it had created. We have tried every possible step to keep the company going but we are all the unfortunate victims of the current global economic crisis.”

Thank you.
