The STB is not intelligent enough to know its location. What matters is the satellite.

If you go to SA from KE and point to Eutelsat 36B, the service will work. SA use Intelsat 20 Ku South Africa Beam, which does not cover the rest of Africa thus a box from SA wont work here because of satellite coverage and nothing more.

i beg to differ.

personally i know of someone using a kenya decoder down south.

I guess what is needed is to set the dish to receive right signal. If you set it to receive SA signal it will not work.

It does not work - please stay away from even trying. Even a decoder bought in Kenya will not work in SA.

Hi all
Just wondering, has anyone managed to get the South Africa DSTV PVR decoder to work in East Africa?
Kindly share your experience.
