MattCinderey Posted July 26, 2011 Share Posted July 26, 2011 Some <deleted> has stolen my UBC dish and bracket. Doh! Luckily I loaded it with plastic explosives, so if you hear a loud boom, you'll know it's them. But seriously. Where can I get a new one from and also have it set up properly (via an oscilloscope) and not Somchai aiming it at some unknown place in the sky. Can anyone help?

Samuian Posted July 26, 2011 Share Posted July 26, 2011 (edited) Look down at the local market, maybe someone needed a new wok! Well try UBC themselves... they are pretty good! Edited July 26, 2011 by Samuian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MattCinderey Posted July 26, 2011 Author Share Posted July 26, 2011 Thanks Samuian. I'll give them a try and see what they say. I was just wondering if any of the other local small satellite shops could do this for me cheaper? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tropicalevo Posted July 26, 2011 Share Posted July 26, 2011 I don't suppose anyone on here has a spare they want to sell? 8 ) I have one if you fancy a trip to Ban Rak. It'll cost you a beer. PM me if you are interested and I will give you details. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nod Posted July 26, 2011 Share Posted July 26, 2011 If you don't have any luck in BanRak, I find Kraitong in Ban Chaweng pretty good for that sort of thing. Cheers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MattCinderey Posted July 26, 2011 Author Share Posted July 26, 2011 Where is Kraitong? Can they align the dish properly? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nod Posted July 26, 2011 Share Posted July 26, 2011 (edited) Where is Kraitong? Can they align the dish properly? Yes I would imagine so. Turn right out of Tescos and they approx one third of the way down-ish the Chaweng run on the left hand side. I think they normally have a dish outside for display if I remember rightly. Cheers. PS. I'm pretty sure they install motorized systems, so they should be smart enough to do a bit of allignment. Edited July 26, 2011 by nod Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MattCinderey Posted July 26, 2011 Author Share Posted July 26, 2011 Thanks Nod. I know the place well. I buy UBC brackets from them regularly for mounting my wireless equipment. I'll drop by and see them Monday. I guess another question is - is it worth getting UBC again? Most of it is cr*p! LOL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
newcomer01 Posted July 26, 2011 Share Posted July 26, 2011 Amorn electronics have them. Also I'm sure any of the sat places will have them and set it up for you. There is even a portable dish on a tripod that you can has the instructions for setting up in Thailand. The dishes are a standard DSTV dish. It is set to Thaisat 5. http://www.lyngsat.com/thai5.html for info. Keep smiling!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Though i hear allot of bad things about UBC but i don't minde it. got sports if u pay for premier package u don't have to pay per view for boxing got loads of football . documentry channels films are annoying because they keep cutting important bits out due to cought the nature of the material but sometimes with out the scenes the fim does not make any sense like the film Chloe. i just did not get that untill i had a phone call and was talking about it. then i realised they cut the lesbian scene out which i woul dhave enjoyied to watch but also the film did not make sense with out it. i had to guess what happened which is a bit sillly really. how long does SParticus last on UBC about 5 mins lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigC Posted July 29, 2011 Share Posted July 29, 2011 (edited) get the dish and film yourself cooking rice on it. that way u can say that u have been on UBC ! and it would be a true move HA HA or maybe just film your self standing on it. that is another way to get on to UBC and that is also a true move HA HA Edited July 29, 2011 by BigC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
