Through Showtime? NO! You need E-Vision or Orbit.

If you signed up with Showtime you should get BBC Prime.. no problem.
Ask their customer service how to get the signal for that station and may send a technician to do some re-tuning. We are a Showtime subscriber and we are NOT HAPPY!!! Since you've signed up already, goodluck.

BBC Prime is seen on Hotbird 12245/H/27500 & 11131/V/5632
and is encrypted by ViaAccess

Showtime package is on Nilesat 11996/H/27500
______________________________________________________

Satellite / Dish Size(need to view)
Nilesat / at least 60cm
Hotbird / at least 90cm

_______________________________________________________

what you need to view BBC:

1. at least 90cm Dish
2. receiver **
3. disecq - stands for digital satellite equipment control
- enables you to connect several dish to your receiver


** you need a receiver which can open the ViaAccess Encryption

Hi , I am thnking of subscribing to Showtime movies plus package at Dhs 179 monthly. However, saw some threads that says Showtime is not good. Why is this and what is my other alternative.
