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.

Dish TV To Launch Mobile MDU In Market

Testing have beed carried out with ten individual television sets using two dish antennae on a luxury cruiser recently, Dish TV Mobile division has just crossed the major technological hurdle of setting up an MDU system in moving vehicles.

This technological breakthrough allows DTH Mobile to set up individual screens in luxury buses and train compartments, where each passenger would be able to watch channels of his or her choice.

In the previous system, all passengers had to watch only a single channel that the bus operator would run from the moving DTH.

Notably, Dish TV Mobile had already started offering personal vehicles with dish antennae and there have been some steady sales. But the problem remained with offering channels of choice to individual TV sets in a mobile carrier.

DishTV offer internet services through DTH

DishTv is planning to provide internet connection through the DTH platform. Once the new satellite is operational internet services would be offered. Current DishTV users would have to exchange their STBs and dish to avail the internet service.

Essel Group owned direct-to-home (DTH) service DishTV is all set to extend its satellite channel capacity to 420 with the launch of its own satellite Argani scheduled by the end of June24th this year. Once operational the satellite would also enable DishTV to provide broadband internet service to its subscribers.

DishTV which has offered a free-of-cost set top box (STB) to all new subscribers, is looking at doubling its customer base of 320,000 in next 50 days. The company's plan to double customer base comes ahead of its Rs 800 crore satellite project being handled by Chinese satellite company ProtoStar.

Protostar has almost finalised the schedule for launching DishTV's satellite from Kourou in French Guyana. they expect the launch by the end of June and the satellite would be operational by July. they will then have additional 14 Ku-band and 12 c-band transponders for satellite TV broadcast. DishTV currently holds nine c-band transponders on a European satellite NSS-6 and can show 220 TV channels.

Being the oldest company in the market, it enjoys market leadership compared with its peers Prasarbharati's DD Direct Plus, Tata Sky and Sun TV services.

With the launch of its satellite and the entry of new players such as Reliance and Airtel in the DTH market, DishTV has decided to offer free STBs to all its new subscribers. New subscribers who opt for the annual maxi package worth Rs 3,990 will also get 67 movies-on-demand (MoD) free of cost.
