Khun_Kong Posted August 7, 2005 Report Share Posted August 7, 2005 Nervous_Dog said: What you watch in Pattaya is either Chonburi Cable TV pr Pattaya Cab;e TV. These used to be pirate cable TV but now they are semi legit. Sophon Cable still around? ~300-350B/month I loved it when your program would stop and the DVD-player menu would come up on the TV screen: Stopped-Ejecting-Insert Disc-Close-Play and then your program would resume.

Vintage_Kwai Posted August 7, 2005 Report Share Posted August 7, 2005 While there used to be a lot of C-band content, most of it is now the local TV channels, though you can still get BBC off Panamsat 7/10. I'm replacing my 10' C-band (done me good service, I watched the tanks rolling through Bangkok quite a few years ago even though local TV was blacked out). I'm getting a replacement dual C- band/Ku band digital 7.5' dish, and can still reuse some of the parts. If you get a receiver with a card slot, you'll get everything you get on UBC plus some 'parental lock required' stuff with the card subscription. Still cheaper in the long run, but the initial outlay is quite a lot. Two main companies here, psisat(Chinese manufacture) and dynasat(Korean manufacture), I feel the dynasat setup is more flexible. The dishes are all manufactured locally. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nervous_Dog Posted August 8, 2005 Report Share Posted August 8, 2005 Good Points, the other option is to get a PVR with a "Cam Slot" and Cam - what you refer to as a "Card Slot" The PVR allows you (Think TIVO if your a USA or Brit resident) to record programmes when your not at home etc. DOG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
