So far have not been able to pick up much of any value, just a gazillion religious channels.

Anybody have any more specific tips ?

Does not look as if the over the air firmware upgrades are operational on the is20.

Hope that they resolve this soon, although it works ok as is.

But it would be useful if they had a satellite profile for the is20.

My Ellies OVHD STB tried doing a update from the SES-5 last night. It wasn't succesfull for some reason - maybe me turing it off, or the wind last night.

Firmware still says Aug 2013.

Yes, you can on the is20.

But I deleted it again, of no interest to me.

Awesome shot, when you could still get it on DSTV, they would have English Premiership soccer games on weekends and Monday nights, some live sporting event on Saturdays and decent Friday night movies at 9pm, advert free. Space TV here is sold out of those decoders though...

OK, will have to revisit that.

Really? I was at brackenfell space TV on Monday to buy one and got told at the front desk that they were sold out.

Will find out why tomorrow... Lots of stock at all the other branches. Definitely have loads in Woodstock. Did they offer to get you one?

They did say that Woodstock had, and that I should phone brackenfell later this week. Il try tomorrow again. It's understandable that they were out of stock though considering the recent changes on is20

Yes, Space HD box, they charged me R739. 86

You just need to add the setting for the IS 20 satellite, as in first post.

No changes to dish.

R739 in JHB as opposed to R999 here in CT...

Lets change this: R740 at Space TV Woodstock CT and at JHB. At Brackenfell Space TV, R999; anyone know why Brackenfell is so much more expensive?

Last night they pushed the update again. Successful - EPG changes, age restrictions now in brackets. Signal strength indicator has improved drastically and picture.

I think that R740 is the trade price. If you can convince them, they will give you that price.

Just got off the phone with Space TV they selling the decoder for R640 will pop into their store later on today.... They already have instructions on how to add IS20 to the decoder.
