Try digital life electronics or Universal electronics. I bet there are cheaper there.

Digital Life is the most expensive satellite shop in Kenya leave alone Nairobbery. Riwara on the other hand used to sell the Inverto LNB at Ksh1200. Inflation of prices at its fullest in Nairobbery. We should start importing some things on our own. I bet buying + shipping + customs is cheaper than that Ksh1800

members what this guys are saying on the 2nd last paragraph is it true....bt i like it nigerians have decided
...........:............
Federal House of Representatives on Tuesday carried
out actions to contain the “arbitrary ” subscription
rates charged by Multichoice for its Digital Satellite
Television services in the country.
The House observed that high pricing by Dstv had
made access to its “premium” programming difficult
for the majority of Nigerians .
It also noted that lack of competition in the digital
satellite broadcast industry had encouraged a
monopoly giving firms such as Multichoice the “undue
advantage ” of blocking the efforts of other firms to
enter the market and crash prices .
Lawmakers particularly opposed a “rigid ” subscription
policy that permanently billed subscribers “whether
they are at home viewing programmes or not . ”
A bill to stop such stranglehold on the industry
passed second reading at the House on Tuesday.
The bill , which was sponsored by a member from
Adamawa State , Mrs . Aisha Dahiru - Modibbo , sought
to amend the National Broadcasting Commission Act
to guarantee openness and competition in the
industry.
The long title of the bill reads, “A Bill for an Act to
Amend the National Broadcasting Commission Act to
Provide for Competition in Nigeria , toPromote
Efficiency and Expand Opportunities for Participation
of Nigerians in World Markets, while at the same time
recognising the Role of Foreign Competition in Nigeria
and for other Matters Related thereto . ”
Leading the debate on the bill , Dahiru - Modibbo said
while Nigeria was not against foreign participation in
the local economy but such involvement should not
be to the detriment of Nigerians .
She noted that there were indigenous firms which
could also render premium satellite broadcast
programming to Nigerians, but complained that
“deliberate actions ” by monopolies stifled the firms .
“In every country, measures are taken to protect the
people .
“What is happening to us in Nigeria does not happen
elsewhere on the continent.
“It is high time our regulatory body , the NBC was
positioned to protect Nigerians from this arbitrary
actions, ” she stated.
The House Deputy Leader , Mr. Leo Ogor , wondered
why Nigeria , one of the countries with the largest
subscriber base of Dstv services, hardly received the
kind of
“subscriber- friendly offers ” that were offered to the
citizens of other African countries .
“You have a situation in the telecommunications
industry, for example , where you are billed as you go
or use your mobile phones.
“You pay for what you use . We should be having pay
as you view or watch as well .
“Why should Nigerians continue to pay for Dstv
services whether they are at home using the service
or not ?” Ogor asked .
He cited Kenya as one of the countries that had taken
measures to contain the excesses of Dstv and other
foreign digital satellite TV service providers .
Seasoned broadcaster and Chairman, House
Committee on Diaspora Affairs, Mrs . Abike Dabiri -
Erewa, lent her voice to the debate , supporting a call
for more subscriber -friendly pricing in Nigeria .

Thanks Samito1, can i use 65cm to Nab it? Am in Nakuru.

I doubt if you can pull that off. kungu 1's post on page 1 says you need at least 1.8 metre prime focus to pull it down.

Multichoice is now giving up that it can’t control the
illegal cable distribution of its content. Despite
frequent police raids and prosecutions, the Pan-
African Premium TV content provider has not
managed to dent the impact of the distributors on
its network. The distribution business is still very
common in urban areas with connection fees for
premium content being as low as Ksh 1,000 per
month.
The one of payment for connection and low monthly
subscription fees to the illegal connection
guarantees subscribers access to premium content
which is now viewable unless you can cough the
over $85 which DSTV charges for its premium
bouquets.
In an advertisement appearing in major dailies in
Kenya, Multichoice Limited (MCA) has invited
Requests for Proposal (RFP) for agents to distribute
DSTV bouquets on wired networks through copper,
coaxial or fibre links. The RFP is handled through
Daly and Figgis law firm with bidders invited to send
their RFP to MCA-Tenders@daly-figgis.co.ke.
Multichoice has tried various anti-piracy methods to
block the distribution of its content but all have
failed. The adverts show that the approach to curb
the menace is changing. Currently DSTV is officially
available through satellite and terrestrial links.

Seems like they are recruiting poachers-turned-game keepers. I wonder how they go about it.

No with NILESAT the dish will face WEST while YAHSAT the dish will face EAST .The signal is strong in NANYUKI although you should align your dish very well to nab it easily
