Dish under the roof?

yeah.. under the roof. on top of the house ceiling. forgot whats that place called.. u know where they put the water tank

anybody here that didn't take anything away from the installer like me?
seem that sabah astro didn't take anything back from us...or it's just me...lol
and how to switch back to #1?...cuz at the 1st day i change to #18...seem cannot changed back already

and anybody know what's the use of the plug for at the back of the remote?
upside of the place where they put the battery?

They took my old decoder, remote and old smartcard.

As my earlier post, try to boot (turn off/on), go to satellite setting, see you can see an 'ok' button at channel 1, press ok, under the satellite signal strength page, there should be an 'ok' button, if not, repeat booting.

The plug at the back of the remote is for user to remapping /reprogramming , you need to buy the JP1 cable, the one on Astro B.yond remote seems with 6 pin, but other universal remote control such as, OneforAll, there is no pin, just 6 pin-contact on small piece PCB. For more on JP1, see the following link.

During heavy rain in kuching, on no.1 setting, signal strength 185 quality is 0. On no.18 strength 185, quality is 100%. All sd channels can watch. HD channels on and off. But much improved from old system.

if the water tank burst , so will your HD channels. gosh fall asleep

anyway , just keep pressing the channel + or - until you see HD pq . don't fall asleep as you might miss it again

nahh it wont burst.. its been there for years.. HD pq? i dont get what ur trying to say..

I just realized the Astro B.Yond page did not mention to subscribe over the phone at their hotline. They have removed it. Does it mean we can't subscribe B.Yond over the phone?

After I leave it for a while (stand-by mode), the volume problem settled, but the decoder still like hot pan (even I leave it at stand-by mode) !?

ya...mine also have a OK button from start
that's why can change to #18 but now seem cannot change back to #1
i can change actually but when i go back and re-enter...it's still back to #18

Do you see ok button at satellite signal strength page (#1) ? If yes, after pressing ok, there should be a tick on #1. If not, try to reboot your decoder again. It seems the Dec23 09 is unstable, sometimes it shows up , sometimes not.
