[QUOTE="w hole, post: 897, member: 175048"] Hello All Just a silly thought, but... WorldSpace transmit from E21 in the range between 1452 and 1492 MHz. My STB has an input frequency of 950 - 2150 Mhz. Why can't I use a piece of damp string instead of a dish and an LNB - Which I understand serves to convert the higher frequencies of our usual birds to the above range -, and point it in the general direction of Afristar to receive the transmissions which are sent in a "technique of compression defined by the international standard ISO MPEG II" - rough translation? Or perhaps a small home made aerial? I know it won't work but can one of the tech chaps explain in laymanese why not? please! Regards to all W Hole [/QUOTE]
