Thailand Expats - UBC and Channel moves

LivinLOS · #1 24-01-2007, 13:38

Just curious how the dreambox responded to UBC's messing yesterday..

Did it auto update the channel movements ??

Denver · #2 24-01-2007, 15:28

I've not got a dreambox (Still working on that!!) but I twiddled with something and the channels are all over the place now! I had gotten used to watching a bit of the good old BBC on 14 and now it's up in the 70's somewhere.........Bit like it's news then!

I'll have another twiddle tonight!

Ummm well D its has a green light on it and have enough cables plugged into to get Gollum excited. Its also hooked up to my Chinese ICBM satalite guidence system so when I get no signal I can blow up the pesky satalites and keep George Bush with suitable distractions while the USD is plunging to new lows

.

On the shorts comment - I thought you wore big shorts cos your a fat ba$tard like me!

Same Same here, I am controlling North Korea's Nuclear assets via a DSTv box and a laptop here in Kamala, thankless job but hey..........!!!

The only reason I wear big shorts is to give Dodger and the Security staff here at Kamala a laugh.............You're secrets safe with me Kev!!

So those protestations from Alan claiming he was the only person who could provide the service (untrue) and then later the only person with 100% uptime..

They were usual pay now service later type promises ??

How much you want for your paperweight Kev ??

Denver · #10 25-01-2007, 09:45

Everything seems to be OK here. I have all the channels I had a week ago but in a different order! Then again, I haven't got a Dreambox, so will shut up now.

Just managed to launch a small nuclear strike against Taiwan by sitting on the remote control............But accidents can happen...........Time for a coffee then!

A bit less than Alfies new laptop

Waiting in hope that Denver wants to become a Sir Hugo Drax (Moonraker) figure and have total control over said ballistic missile (BM) technology.

Where your bid Denver ??

A Gazillion Dollars to my secret SCB account in Kamala!

Just sat on the remote again and the pool slid into the side of the mountain exposing this big UBC dish. Unfortunately, there were people in the pool at the time!

Still looking for my 'Secret' bunker up here, it's that secret even I can't find it! I'll have to ask Noteeth McHairlip, my latest midget butler Drax girl if she knows!

Drax Out

When there is a channel move on my terrestial dreambox, I just do a new search. The shared card will still work.

I dont think the "shared card" we paid premium for is working now.

Dreambox is still a great receiver but the networking (shared) card is not working anymore.

We should setup our own network.

LivinLOS · #15 26-01-2007, 09:40

Sorry thats exactly what Alan made such a big point about.. That the card sharing was 100% uptime and he was the only place who could guarantee such a service and everyone else was unreliable.
