You will need to purchase compatible new decoders to receive the signal via the new satellite. We remind you that old satellite signal will remain available until 1 January 2008 to assist you in the migration process, however you will need to obtain the necessary decoding equipment compatible with the new satellite by 1 December 2008 in order to continue receive the signal of the channel.
