I see that the PAS10 DSTV beam covers a lot of Australia. I know of some in Melbourne who get the signals with a 2.4m dish.<br /><br />I have it myself. The international sports shown is second to none.<br /><br />I wonder how many other people on this forum use it. I know of some people in Darwin and Perth Adelaide using DSTV.

Most of my neighbors in Nairobi have DSTV. I opted not to get it -- USD 65 per month is a bit too much to pay just to watch 24 hours of cricket. I opt for MBC 2 from Egypt, Channel One from Dubai, and Al Jazeera Sports -- all are FTA on Arabsat 2C. Am anxiously awaiting the long-anticipated launch of Arabsat 4A, scheduled for Dec. 05. Hopefully it will bring more FTA goodies such as MBC 4.
