Eg. if Sun TV offers a set of channels on the same satellite, then you can buy a smart (CAM) card from Sun and add that card besides the current card given by Tata Sky to watch both.
Regarding your question on the signal strength, it is the allignment problem of the dish (due to wind or not fixed accurately) - there is an On Screen Display of signal strength and you can view this (which is probably what you are doing). |
there is a provision for a 2nd card in my stb. but wouldn't the software of dish make it not possible for me to view the other channels. is it possible that dish could have done something like that ? because everytime i start the receiver, i see dishtv on the bios screen. wonder if that has got something to do with it.
