Hi Listers,
Wanted to inform you that on the 19th of June 2012 I migrated from analogue to digital TV reception, the signal is crystal clear not like the graining images I have been accustomed to over the past many years. The move was necessitated by the need for some of my house-mates to watch Tusker Project Fame, I went VoD many months ago.
To put an issue to rest especially those in the media who have been spreading malicious roamers about the migration that I did not buy a digital TV set. All I
bought was a decoder for 2,999/- which I plugged into old faithful and "pap" I can now receive clear digital signal.
It was encouraging to note that all the current free to air channels, some of which I did not even know existed, have jumped onto the transmission including NTV, KTN and Citizen which makes you wonder what all those legalise was about. The quality of the various channels is glaring, something that was not visible with the analogue signal.
To get a more holistic experience I also paid for the basic bouquet for 500/- a month, the offering was not disappointing but the number of channels is mind boggling especially having been there during the days of single channel VOK (Voice of Kenya). I only wish they could allow me create
my own selection of channels to receive, the standard offerings make me feel like I am in a straight jacket. Yes, this is what happens when you enlighten people, 2 days ago I was comfortable receiving 6 horrible free to air channels today I am demanding a la Carte.
All of you out there who where saving to buy expensive digital TV sets you can take 2,999/- of that money and migrate to digital TV today.
Regards
PS. I just took the device home handed over to my son who within 15 minutes had it up and running, held on to the remote.
