Get 100 channels on your DStv decoder for free — without a subscription

An experiment by MyBroadband showed that you could add more than 100 channels to a DStv decoder for free by changing a few settings.

The channels are broadcast free from the satellite DStv uses, Intelsat 20.

I remember this, the sale pitch it was funny. He was able to hack the decoder to get these channels

Wouldn’t waste the electricity switching on the decoder. Had enough of that c••p already.
