Thanks Vivian Where does one apply for the DTH connection?
Thanks Aloysius ----- Original Message ----- From: Vivian D'Souza To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Saturday, March 04, 2006 1:18 PM Subject: DTH TV Aloysius: Saw your query on the Goanet forum. DTH/TV is available in Goa. I have it at my home in Socorro. I paid Rs. 3,900/- for the satellite dish, a decoder box and the connecting cables from the satellite dish to the decoder box. There is no monthly fee. The dish has to be aimed by the installer at the satellite in the sky, using some equipment to aim. The reception is crisp and clear, except on windy days when the satellite dish is buffeted by winds I guess. But this is very seldom. You get BBC News, Headline News (a round the clock English News channel) and several Doordarshan channels including DDSports. In addition there are several other channels in hindi and regional languages such as Marathi, Gujarati, Orriya, Malayalee,Kannada, Tamil etc. There is also an audio channel with music in various languages, I have had my DTH service for over one year now and am very satisfied with it. However I use it as a back up for my Cable TV service which has more programs, but is susceptible to frequent breakdowns because of where I live.
