Nearest equivalent to freeview play from satellite / freesat - astra 2 - 28 east

[Channel Hopper]

So, is there one on FreeSat ?

Are any manufacturers organising, or likely to organise a cartel to supply one ?

The contract for the next generation G3 Freesat boxes has recently been awarded to Arris so if theres no rush I would hold off buying anything atm

Isn't Freetime the Freesat equivalent?

Freesat is a UK epg system and is definitely not receivable in Kenya with any size dish so a freesat receiver would be useless to you. What you should be asking for is FTA (free to air) receivers and there are hundreds available worldwide and more appear weekly so we need to know what you hope to achieve. If it is the theft of pay/subscription TV then we cannot assist on this forum.

Never say never. VLBA is currently being used to collect satellite signals that would not normally be receivable, with a stable reference clock.

Any more detail? How long is long?

From where you live, not very long at all, about 40cms.

Thanks, I will need the latest FTA receiver that you prefer. We have some available within our market but have some challenges. It is a clean business no theft at all....Its illegal in Kenya and I do not support that...

Your previous post says otherwise -

Initially I was using Biss keys to unlock some channels but technology has improved to scramble almost everything.

I suspect this is a classic case of a long standing difference in terminology. UK free to air meaning just that, only receiving unscrambled channels whereas in other parts of the world an FTA receiver is one that is pre-loaded with software that would illegally unscramble pay TV subscription services. As already mentioned, encryption/decryption methods have improved over the years, so satellite subscription fraud is now generally superceded by IPTV services of which many people use and abuse at their own risk, they must of course recognise that by using such methods to illegally watch Pay TV services they are undoubtedly paying their good money to drug cartels and terrorist organisations and therefore do so at their own risk
