Picking up the D2Mac stuff off 1w & 5e with my old Nokia D2Mac decoder and Fergusson Analogue receiver.

I also remember using my old BSB DMac receiver and BSB Squarial and having to turn around the plastic sheet inside the squarial to make it L/H circular so i could pick up a french music channel. If i remember rightly it was on the TDF satellites at 19w

I still find new things out that suprise me, and i still like messing with dishes to see what i can get. I suprised myself last week by getting stuff of 68.5e which is no mean feat as its so low in the sky.

Opening new channels is an extra, but its not the only reason why i mess with satellites. I still use my Nokia dBox1 which is no use for anything now other than FTA stuff, but it still gets used on a regular basis.

I also like to open other stuff using keys. I still also play around with these channels even though i know they can be opened up on CS.

I know you used to be able to open the softNDS encrpted NRK & DR channels on 5e using scamd, not sure if its still the case but i don't see why not

Not everyone is there for as much as they can get for nothing. There's lots of gems out there if you look for them. Satsid used to find some amazing feeds in the past. Nice to see your still around Sid
