Hello graphic icon,
with v3.32p patch, you can downgrade to to v3.16p, v3.20p or v3.24p patch. Without v3.32p software, you cannot downgrade without partially erasing the software or bricking the receiver. Here are the proof with pictures.

This is from dejumbo on kenya sat forum.

On my SRT 4922 with the new SW ver. 183p
dated 31-07-2015, I have been able to open the
following on IS 20 after inserting the necessary
PV keys except for 3974 H (HBO/CNN) which
opens directly without inserting the keys.
I upgraded from 178p which was opening only
Sky News, SIS & NHK.
Please just follow the simple procedures as
follows:
>> First track/scan and get the required PV
channels on IS 20 and/or Apstar 7.
>> Upgrade your SRT 4922 with the new SW i.e.
183p
>> Go to one of the channels on the TP you wish
to open.
>> Enter CAREFULLY the relevant keys, exit and
save.
>> Sometimes the keys take a few minutes before
opening the channel; do not panic, be patient skip
to another unrelated channel and come back later
to find the channel showing.
>> Each key opens the whole transponder and so
there is no need to repeat each channel
separately.

Here are the channels I am currently enjoying on
IS 20.
3739 H 26590 NHK World Premium
3900 H 22222 Sony SAB TV India
Sony Pix
Sony Mix
Sony Six
Sony Max India
Sony Max 2
SET India
Sony Kix HD
3974 H 19500 HBO South Asia
CNN International South Asia
3974 V 19850 Discovery Channel India
BBC World News India
Animal Planet India
TLC India
Discovery Turbo India
Discovery Kids India
Discovery Channel Tamil Nadu
Investigation Discovery India
Discovery Science Channel India
4064 H 19850 Sky News International
SIS Digital

For those who are still facing difficulties in
making their entered PV keys to open, do not
despair.
It means there is a conflict on channel frequency
already stored in the PV CAS menu.
Press 8282 and check the PV keys already stored
for those matching your keys and then edit the
channel frequency.
This conflict is common especially on tps 3974H
and 3974V. Just change one tp to e.g. 3977 and
rescan the channels
and then edit PV menu to include the new
frequency. Please note that although the above
tps are different (one is H
and the other is V), the receiver's PV edit function
sees them as the same and cannot differenciate
between H and V.

Re: Free To Air Satellite Tv General Thread by blexxonmak(m): 11:53am On Aug 10, 2015
@Talenty.

Press 8282 to open the CAS table.

Scroll down to available slots and choose PowerVU as the CAS.

Indent = Transponder frequency to be decoded.
E.g for 4064H,Indent = 04064

Now input your two KEYS - key 00 and key01.
Note:You will notice the length of the keys will be two digits short, just
leave the last two digits as 00.


Press EXIT and it will ask to Save.

Re: Free To Air Satellite Tv General Thread by ashimiyy(m): 12:31pm On Aug 10, 2015
[quote author=routsz post=36780451]Can these leaves affect signal strength? My 1.8m on Eutel 16A could only offer 68% quality and MyTV cracks badly. I'm in FCT and d lnbf is Strong C&Ku band combined. House pls[/quote

From this picture in can clearly see the lnb is not well positioned @ the focal point of the dish. Try to make some adjustments in that wise.]

Re: Free To Air Satellite Tv General Thread by Talenty(m): 2:36pm On Aug 10, 2015
Thanks blexxomax and zoboizee, I followed your instructions and I got all the channels on IS20C with I.8m using 4922a. I finally got Sony package at 58% but it showing scrambled. I have entered the keys from najmsat. Is it that the signal quality is small or I'm doing something wrongly. I thought as much as it shows scramble on the set, the signal is enough for the channels to show.

I finally got Sony package on IS2OC at 61% with 1.8m at Benin city. It was a very tedious task, 2 days tracking. It was very difficult but it's worth it. The best dish to use is 2.4m
