Receiver Technosat Mentari - 1200 Channel Memory

One of the DVB set to receive satellite tv is Receiver box or some call it Set-Top-Box or for short just said STB. There are two main category of receivers: FTA receiver which is capable of receiving FTA signal from satellite tv broadcasting, and one that's called IRD or Integrated Receiver Decoder which is used to receive the transmission from some paytv providers such as Indovision, TelkomVision, Astro, DSTV, and many more.

I bought the FTA receiver months ago which is the product from technosat with its variant of Mentari - the Indonesia trademark I thought. Well, it is simply powerful to receive FTA tv transmission from the satellites.

One thing I know for sure is the blindscanning capability which is sensitive enough to use in the detail scanning. It only consume 3 (three) minutes or less to scan a satellite on average with the significant result.

I have some reason why I choose Technosat receiver than the others such as Goldsat, Tanaka, Matrix (FTA), and many more. I had searched for some references from my friends on forums. Many say that Technosat is one of the best receiver to receive satellite tv signal and it capability is awesome. I I've proved it for myself.

Beside its blindscanning, the interesting thing for me is the channel storage memory which is able to store 1200 data channels. This is the first receiver I bought (myself) which can actually store enough satellite tv parameters. I need that many because I love to scan from East to West satellites. For now, it is just from Telstar 18 (138'E) to Yamal 202 (49'E) I have on my receiver. I plan to spend on one or more dishes to receive other signals from East.

So, the main reason for I bought this Technosat Mentari are:

    • Fast Blindscanning
    • High sensitivity tuner and fast in channel switching (using the number key on the remote control).
    • Huge Channel Store Memory, up to 1200 channels.
    • It's a small dimension receiver but powerful.

But if you plan to have a receiver for receiving non-FTA programs too, you cannot do that with this Technosat Mentari because of course this is just an FTA receiver. Here's the picture of the Technosat Mentari that I use.

Thank you for reading. Best luck!
