Hi all, I'm Adrian (25), I'm new here and I have a large interest in something rather obscure - old literature and equipment from the early days of satellite TV, particularly DStv.
I am currently looking for the DStv magazines from about 1999. I know in about the year 2000 there was the "dish" magazine. Before that in the 90's it was simply called the MultiChoice "tv magazine".
What I would like to ask is, does anyone know when exactly the magazine changed its name and if it was already called "dish" back in 1999 or if it was still called the "tv magazine" at that point?
The reason why I look for these is because 1999 was a very interesting year for DStv with many changes occurring. It was the changeover from the PAS 4 to the PAS 7 satellite, the proper introduction of the interactive channels like the Mosaic on channel 99 and many more things. It would be nice to read about it and see pictures, as I was a bit too young to remember it.
And, of course, if anyone by chance still has some of these magazines, that would be even better, but I do realize it was very long ago.
Many thanks in advance.
