how to get indian tv channels in UAE, kuala lumpur, dubai, sharjah, abu dhabi, kuwayt.

how to get indian DTH tv channels in UAE, kuala lumpur, dubai, sharjah, abu dhabi, kuwayt, qatar, bahrain, doha, manama, pakistan, nepal,srilanka, singapore, malasia, bangkok,dhaka.

the india DTH coverage is limited to india territory only. but the satellites are places in such high that it can not restrict signal to scater. so by this we can catch the signal from the satellite by following ways.

first we have get the dish and setupbok STB (MPEG2) from any local dealer with Ku LNB for free to air channels such as from dd direct plus. with is the only one DTh service will provide free to air channels in india. you get a dream box any were in world it is a open source stb.

in selection of the dish we have to take alot of care because it is the most important to catch the signals. normally in india 30cm is more than sufficient but other than india we need the larg dish it depends on the distance from india.

for example to dubai it needs 120cm of dish to get full signal from india satellite. so please choose the proper dish size to get full signal. most important is clear sky view there should not be any object like building are any others objects between the dish and sky. direct shall be facing india and the satellite is INSAT 4B at 93.5c east. it is easy by adjusting it by viewing signal in STB.

for pay channels services like dishtv, sundirect, tatasky, airteldirect, Bigtv. we need to have there STB's. in genaral all there STB's are carring by the passenger from india to respective country's but it is illlegal to carry the india STB's but there is one option is by getting DREAM BOX STB.


if carry any pay service STB there will a smart card with it. by this the encrypt signal are decrypted and you can view the channels. for you have pay the monthly or yearly fee to the service providers.
now a days payments are made easy so you pay through internet.

any technical problem shall be done only in india.

but the illiagal way of geting pay channels for free is through Dream box STB. it is open source STB run in linux with internet connection you can crack the encrypted signal and watch tv for free.



Dear all,

I installed 4 types of DTH setupbox in abu dhabi and dubai.

Sundirect in abu dhabi is working fine with 180cm dish and clear sky view. still date there is no problem.

The Dish tv in dubai is working fine but the signal varies few mins but there is issue in picture quality.

TataSKy installation is high in UAE/Dubai/Sharjah because of quality.

The dth is one way communication system so there no one find from ware your accessing the satellite.

About dream box you can only access tatasky, DD direct plus and dish tv because it is MPEG2 technology.

i found it many shops in dubai/abu dhabi/sharjah. but you have to buy smart card to view pay channels.

please write comments for more details.

how to take two connections from a single DTH like SUNdirect, bigtv, dishtv, dd direct, tatasky, airtel digital

                             this is a simple article to explain how to have two different DTH connection in same house. there are three different types of connections for a DTH in a multiple tv connections in a single house.


1. in a single Dth connection for multiple tv's. in some setupbox (STB) there is a line out facility which will help to have another connection to tv. but you will receive same channel in both of the tv's because the STB is the controler for both tv's.


2. you have to buy second STB and have a spitter ( this is device connect at LNB to share the signal for both STB's) hardware to connect two STB's. there is no need of any dish.


3. the last one is currently runing method of haveing two STB's and TWO LNB's with same dish.

dream box is a open source setupbox for free to air channels and pay channels.

in india it will not be available openly because it is does not have any stranded ISI approval.

it runs on Linux OS and we need to have Internet to register it.

in general it is used for view pay channels with any payment or simply crack encrypted pay channels  to view as free channels.

So we have to get this dream box from know source in china or other country.

dream box will have to connect to Internet to decrypt the pay channels to view.

for full details please visit website www.dreamboxworld.com/

we can get FM channels through DD plus antena?

yes it is possible to get FM channels in dd direct plus which are free to air service.

1. to get free to air FM channels in india and around india. we have to buy a dish and MPEG4 setupbox. the MPEG2 won't support the FM channels because there are in MPEG4 format.

2. currently FM channels are in INSAT4B satellite at 93.5East.

3. sundirect setupbox can be used for the free to air channels and free FM radio.

4. the list of FM raio channels in satellite are Suryan FM, S FM Hyderabad, S FM Bangalore ect.

SUNDirect setupbox can be used for free to air (FTA) channels

SUNDirect setupbox can be used for free to air (FTA) channels.
we can view the DD Direct Plus channels in sundirect setupbox for free of cost.

1. the dish direction is same as the both sundirect and dd direct plus are in same satellite INSAT4B at 93.5 East. so there is no change in dish direction.

2. sundirect is using the IRDETO technology. this is only to encrypt the pay channels. so the smart card will not block the FTA channels.

3. the setupbox is MPEG4 and MPEG2 compartablility so both will work on same setup box.

enjoy viewing free channels in sundirect connection.
