African Satellite World and Sat Gear

African Satellite World and Sat Gear

Guys! Guys! Let it pass! Its not worth it!

I do understand that we both have different perceptions about a lot of things. And I realise that no one is ever at his best when his mind tells him that his intelligence is being lurked.

So! Let love reign, we can't all believe in one and one thing alone. Let's be gentle! As some of us, especially me, I feel being robbed having a bill on my list for TV programa yet I only get time to watch in the evening, but i may happily pay 50USD just for an Lnb that may even under perform but won't mind and may even report for others to learn that this and that does this, while another would say, that is irrational, IPTV is better as you only watch at your own appointed time and no need for so and so!
You see!
We are different we can't all think alike! Other wise we would be like clones!
However, provocative and cursing words should never come off a matured person, only constructive arguments!
 
You are a real mjinga kabisa.
It is you who has been thoroughly brainwashed.
Years ago you are the mjinga who said that HD would not last and you would never buy an HD receiver. What is the situation now?
What makes you think that those sats being launched won't be reconfigured to beam something else. How about 4K UHD signals? How are you going to stop them?
The future is coming and with it, many changes and new technologies whether you like it or not.
My intention was just to start a discussion on the future of TV and how best we can prepare for it. But your primitive mind told you to start a "jihad" to protect your precious dishes which are actually tomorrow's junk.
For your information, FTA is not totally free. The dishes we have accumulated are worth a fortune not to mention the many receivers, switches, etc plus the time we put in hunting for elusive sats. Also power consumed by these gadgets must be taken into consideration.
So you can crawl back under your BUD dishes to watch your favorite channels on your old Strong SRT 4669 hooked to a Sony Trinitron TV with your vintage VHS player while listening to music on your audio cassette tape player while checking the net on your vintage PC running on Windows 95.

So what if you are watching old technologies AND YOU ARE HAPPY?One sign of low intelligence is using insults to drive your point home.As someone has pointed out,the best thing would have been to start an IPTV thread and continue from there.Otherwise coming on an FTA forum and acting like a bull in a china shop is really unhelpful.The title of the thread is ''african-satellite-world-and-sat-gear'', and it is generally a mature thread.Therefore we need to avoid this type of language.

Bla bla blah whatever.. tembea salama
 
They say,kama mwendawazimu akichukua nguo zako...chutama, usikimbizane naye kwa barabara..otherwise,wote mtaitwa wendawazimu..

Why don't you serve your precious energy for better stuff, huh?
Lemme preserve it Sir..

Yup! I encourage constructive arguments. My views get challenged here everyday especially by Mr. GIDEN but he does it using facts and am okay with it.

Lets have constructive discussions.

Oh please.
Just SHUT UP !!!
Are you trying to sound intelligent or you are just showing your support to the bully freq?
Continue following your "master" freq and you will fall into a ditch with him. He has so far convinced you that he knows everything.
He won't tolerate any criticism.
Look at the way he "barked" at poor Aaaarrgh just because his forum name did not please him.
You are MYK just like him.

Hey madam

Sorry for whatever offence I did to you.

Stop it for the sake of this good old thread.

The issue with Aaaaarrghhh (and hes not poor by the way he has a very nice balcony for his dishes) was sorted and we're in good terms. I've even helped him find a second hand 8ft he wanted.

I agree you're smart and futuristic with your iptv so no more need for arguments.

So just stop it if you want to look any smarter.

Hey MYK big bully.
You should also stop bullying forum members. They also have feelings.
Thanks to all the members who have so far sent me messages of support by pm and email etc for taking on the big bully by its "horns".
You do not have to keep quiet when faced with a non repentant bully. Remember bullies are actually insecure and cowards and are only seeking recognition because of their inferiority complex.
I now rest my case.
 
This forum si loosing its purpose now. Since i joined in 2013 things were smooth. All about sharing and educating each other. Now it's about showing off and grand standing. We don't have to agree with each other but let's please respect each others opinions. We risk loosing gurus because of this kind of behavior. Lets please observe the rules of respecting the opinions of others.

😁😁😁 It's getting funny. You're a hero

Thank you for resting your case.

Fine you see the problem is if a person goes posting misleading opinions and doesn't want correction, forum members risk making poor decisions with financial implications.

For instance if you're telling people to throw away their dishes because satellite is coming to an end while for example Nilesat 201 7w was launched just recently in 2016 and is expected to last till around 2030.. it is very misleading. I can't stand back and watch that. Even if you call me know it all. It's for the benefit of good members of the house. Id rather delete my account than allow it happen.

There is no purpose for this thread if false information is allowed to go uncorrected. Even if we risk hurting egos, we should always insist that info be properly backed up and verified possibly with pictures.

Very many people come here for info and we should at least strive to provide good accurate info.

You can say that again!
I agree it high time we called a truce on the current exchange. I plainly find it distracting!
What pains me most is that the forumers involved have been very instrumental in shaping fta discussions;

In recent months, I have learnt a lot from freq on a very wide variety of issues ranging from semi-motorizing a dish to spotting fta tps. His prompt, timely and detailed responses to queries raised by other members is, to say the least, unparalleled.

I've equally been here long enough to recall that 3 or so years ago (how time flies!) dejumbo had kept the forum informed on the performance of a very large unique offset dish he had acquired at a time when digiturk was in a recession. Without referring to those pages behind, I vividly remember those lively photos of the dish.

Looks to me that we have a dejavu here; Don't we all remember the push and shove we had regarding whether accessing JF would be better through Whatsapp or the old-fashioned PC way? Well, I think both technologies are surviving (if not thriving). Never mind for a period, the discussion nearly dried up here as folks took to Whatsapp.(For the record I never went for the new technology -and I hope you don't call me a Luddite-, yet I thought it would be appropriate for folks on the move).

It's thus my considered opinion that somehow IPTV and satellite Tv might as well co-exist. The history of mankind is a lesson that the more things change, the more they remain the same.

In sum, allow me to quote a question posed by (probably the greatest musician from East Africa yet) Mbaraka Mwaruka Mwinshehe;
Matusi Ya Nini?

OK...o great one.I bow to your 'superior intellect and wisdom'.Is it possible for you to stop the infantile insults now and let us continue being 'misled' in peace?

I remember WhatsApp almost killed the thread. That's why i took it as personal responsibility to make at least one post a day. And respond to all queries I can (it's very painful and frustrating asking a question and it's ignored by everyone) , add some humor to make the thread lively. And venture into new topics like Motorisation as it was getting boring discussing same old topics.

I couldn't stand to see a thread that made me avoid monthly tv bills die just like that.

Unfortunately my frequent posts and insights which I generously share are earning me a name of "know_it_all" . I don't know much just that am more willing to suggest solutions. And I urge all members to do the same

Old gurus are coming back pole pole. Lets keep it up.
 
It is a relic but still shows iptv channels. I do get some but they are not of interest to me.
I don't think it will get you much. If you have a stable relaible internet, I suggest you get an android box.
 
Elite poor is someone living just above the poverty line. Earns around $ 800 a month. Maybe living in a 2 bedroom flat. You can't call them rich. They're 'Middle class' by African standards because of the abject poverty in Africa. In the west theyd be considered poor. They have a few coins to spare but rather than saving they spend it on recurrent expenses like internet, tv bills etc.

I always view iptv as a "cool kid" thing. But that's just my view.

I could have free unlimited internet but surely there are better things to do with internet other than watching TV.

FTA is free. You could leave it running the whole day and night. No buffering. No worring about safcom or z#ku. Nothing its just you and your big dish. Youre your own technician. If you want movies/series you can always download and watch at free time.

It all boils down to priority, for sure some of those things that bear no returns just end up utilising funds that would have been invested in something worthy!
 
Whats the point? We live in East Africa! Let them Arabs squander their own oily money for nothing!

For me being here its just my thing, I am enthrilled whenever I succeed in hunting new channels, then I get familiar with them,I hunt again.
My ears itches whenever I hear FTA trends and may leave the meal on the table when Munyaga says certain direction has A and B . So you see, nothing else!

That's it, our thing, our joy when we succeed to down them .....enjoy them for free when they last.
