I have two homes in Thailand. One in Bangkok and the other in a remote village in the Sakon Nakhon area(which is newly completed)

In the Bangkok location I subscribe to True - Gold package.

When I visit Sakon Nakhon can I take the True box with me and watch the same programmes (assuming I can get a local guy to fit the appropriate satellite dish)?

This would be a real bonus - not having to subscribe a second time.

If this is not possible can members advise a good alternative I can get fitted to receive English Language films and series. There is no sensible internet option at this time.

Yes. Just need to re point the satellite. Moved four times no problems

Thanks. I want to shuttle between Bangkok and Sakon Nakhon . 6 weeks in BKK and then 2 weeks in SN. Do you think that'll work out ok?

Should be no problem but you may want to have some cable stubs to connect to instead of slowly killing the screw connectors on your box. The CAM module doesn't care about its location, and as long as the subscription is valid will happily decode the signal wherever it can get it.

Brilliant - thanks for the information. What are cable stubs?

I've never seen them in Thailand (I think this is was he means by cable stubs), but basically instead of screwing the connector on - you slide it on.

Thanks. i've seen these in the UK - more common for standard TV aerial connections. Should be able to source via e-bay.

Hi, no they are not standard aerial connectors, they are specifically made to slip over satellite connections... They do not work with aerial sockets etc..

This is a TV aerial connector

This is a slip on Ftype satellite connector..

OK , thanks for the clarification. I'll start looking around on ebay.

Best to have someone install a second dish and cabling. Just need to move boxes each time
