This has reminded of a discussion had here in 2010 about the signal distribution that is done in those apartment complexes. Search for dstv signal distribution in the archives. one Aki was very knowledgeable on this.
But that being said those no.s are random but the watermark thing would so work. I assume the watermark is implemented network or country wide?
The Numbers are not random. They can only be random if you are receiving
feed from a sambaza guy. Sambaza guys have a set of STBs each
dedicated to a single channel. so if you change channel, you actually
connect to a different stb.
Also do the DSTV guys know your geographic position. If I remove my dish and decoder in a setup in Kitui and set it up in Eldama Ravine would they know of the geographic change?
- the satellite dish is RO (Receive ONLY) thus no
bidirectional communication. Communication back to provider has to be through any other mode.

Mark,
If you are distributing channels illegally, then provider need only to know the areas you are distributing then they will get their guys on ground(either their team will subscribe to the illegal connections or visit one of the home/hse with sambaza), then will ask office to trigger watermark.
This will display the serial number/smartcard number of the decoder(s) being used to sambaza. Then they will just block them on their Conditional access system. and take any other action (legal mostly).
So wachana na Sambaza!
J,
