sorry for necroposting a bit.

I now detect 92 channels on Sophon in Jomtien.

I'm irritated about the strange sound balance on some of the channels, for example movie channel 5, where it seems to be 100/25 (right channel almost inaudible).

Any easy fix for this?

I don't really understand why anyone is bothered with cable TV. There are, what, 5-10 channels with any content of interest for foreigners? I get much better TV directly off the internet. Buy a Gbox or something like that or even just an old Netbook and plug into the TV and hey presto, satellite quality TV from home. For the wife we had a satellite installed by PSI for 2,000 baht all in, 60 Thai channels FTA.

Just bought a new LG plasma TV. I have Sophon cable and now receive the BIO channel on #87.

The sound is good, the picture is a little snowy, but watchable.

I also have older Panasonic and Samsung plasmas - they do not receive the BIO channel.

Now there are 100 channels, some are bad pic and some ok, My main complaint is sound on most English Movie Channels.

Universal 44, 42, 28 have really bad, low sound.

Have called them many times, they sent out technician who says its a problem but does nothing about it.
