DStv

Encyclopedia : D : DS : DST : DStv

DStv is MultiChoice's multi-channel digital satellite TV service in Africa, launched in 1995. In South Africa and neighbouring countries, it broadcasts on ku-Band, which only requires a small satellite dish, while the rest of Africa receives broadcasts via C-Band. Subscribers in South Africa also receive the South African Broadcasting Corporation's three terrestrial channels, SABC1, 2 and 3. These are not available to subscribers elsewhere, for rights reasons, although they receive the SABC Africa channel.

DStv also has separate 'bouquets' of channels in Portuguese, German, and Indian languages.
