QUOTE(smileguy @ Feb 4 2012, 04:05 PM) Maybe !! the battle for survival has begun I suppose,time to get to work.fight rain fade to remain in the game! Actually.. I've seen some house nearby my neighbourhood having an obvious larger dish. Its an astro phillips dish... that dish doesn't look 60cm at all! Wish to change one to that size too, of course being legal to use it.

Hi guys,
Wondering if someone here can help me out. Does anyone here have TV model TH-42PV80HM and knows which code to use for Astro's b.yond PVR remote control?
I tried all the Panasonic specific codes in Astro's manual and while I can get a few to work with the on/off button, none of them seem to work with the volume buttons (which is the important one to avoid "carrying" two remotes).
Thanks.

If press remote, the red indicator flash 2 times means battery low is it?

Flashing 2X is an indication that the code(s) /sequence of pressing certain buttons, are valid. NB. As mentioned in earlier post, such info is in the User Manuals that come with Astro Decoders.

QUOTE MEASAT leases capacity on NewSat’s Jabiru-1 satellite
Asian satellite operator to lease capacity to the tune of $US180 million
Satellite company, NewSat (ASX: NWT)[1], has signed a deal with Asian satellite operator, MEASAT Satellite Systems Sdn. Bhd. (MEASAT), to carry out a strategic satellite partnership. The deal means that MEASAT will have access to multiple transponders covering South Asia and South-East Asia for the 15-year lifespan of the Jabiru-1 satellite.
The capacity leased on Jabiru-1, worth a minimum of $US180 million, will provide back-up services to MEASAT's customer base.
NewSat founder and CEO, Adrian Ballintine, is looking forward to having MEASAT on board the Jabiru-1 satellite, and views the decision as “strategically important” to NewSat because of MEASAT’s leading role in the Asia Pacific satellite industry. “We are very pleased to be working with MEASAT in bringing this strategic capability to Asia to assist their customers with expansion and protection of their existing services,” he said.
According to Ballintine, the deal with MEASAT follows a number of recently signed large contracts for capacity on the satellite. “NewSat has now assembled cornerstone contracts totalling $US526 million to underpin the export credit agency backed debt financing, to build and launch the satellite, further reinforcing NewSat’s vision of becoming a satellite operator,” he said.
The agreement is expected to be finalised over the next two weeks after the Jabiru-1 technical specifications are completed, as well as the execution of a lease agreement with MEASAT to acquire capacity on the Jabiru-2 satellite. http://www.arnnet.com.au/article/414407/me...ellite/#closeme (Updated)

If other remote works, possibly yr remote is faulty. New remotes available @Astro Service Centres @RM30 or clones in Malls,etc @RM10++ depending on type. Ps. Mayb can claim for replacement since Byond Decoder comes with Life Warranty? Dunno if warranty covers remote or not tho.
