This report seems to contradict CCK's communications manager Mr.
Wambua who said today on another thread on this list that all
subscriber-based digital set boxes have FTA channels for end users who
don't want to pay subscription fees

“Customers who fail to pay subscription fees on time will

continue to access the must-carry free-to-air services (FTA) for a

period of at least two weeks,” read a letter from CCK director-general

Francis Wangusi (pictured, below left) to pay-TV providers.

Through

the letter, CCK is reneging on an earlier agreement with Cofek that

made it compulsory for pay-TV companies to give subscribers access to

all free-to-air channels, even without a paid-up subscription.

This

agreement saw the providers introduce a new range of decoders that

would allow customers view all the FTA channels – KBC, NTV, KTN, K24 and

Citizen TV for free.
