Satellite TV in the Moscow region: the best operators
If you are a resident or a guest of the capital (Moscow region), then several first-class satellite television operators work for you in the region at once. But before considering the list of the most popular and time-tested companies providing satellite television services, it is necessary to understand what criteria the service must meet. Let's consider them in detail:
- The type of channels that you will need when watching TV and their number.
- The number of TVs you plan to connect.
- The presence of television towers nearby and their appearance.
- Signal reception level.
- Location selected for installation of equipment and cabling.
- The price of the purchased satellite set, payment terms and cost of the selected service package.
When choosing a suitable kit for connecting satellite TV, many consumers, due to their ignorance, stop at a low-quality product or purchase a package of services at an inflated price that does not correspond to the declared quality. When choosing the right satellite TV operator, consider the following points:
- The price of a set of services. When choosing a suitable set of equipment on various sites, in a store and other places, keep in mind that often sellers offering it at too low a price may not include installation costs in the final price. But often it "pulls" from 30 to 70% of the total cost of a set of services.
Advice. If you ordered an antenna of considerable diameter (more than 1.5 m), do not be lazy to clarify the cost of its delivery to your home and installation on the roof.
- Features of channels and satellites. Many cable TV operators offer a wide variety of channels in their service packages. At the same time, they do not specify one small nuance: when calculating the number of channels, those that have a time shift are taken into account as a unit. For example, STS 0, STS+2, etc. are one and the same STS channel, but are issued for several channels, etc.
- Part of the equipment. Not all consumers understand the intricacies of forming a set of satellite TV services. It is important to understand that there are satellites with a more powerful or, conversely, a weaker signal. So, for example, you have chosen a certain satellite, in which more than 200 channels are caught on a dish with a diameter of about 0.8-0.9 m. And then we found a company that offers this kit at a significantly lower price than all the others. During the installation process, it turns out that you have purchased a dish of a much smaller diameter, which will give you the opportunity to enjoy only 100 channels maximum.
- Problems with equipment purchased independently. Often, in large hypermarkets of equipment, ready-made kits with satellite equipment are sold at seductive prices, and many buyers "follow the lead" from sellers by purchasing it. After all, often a satellite dish made of ordinary plastic is included in the kit of such a product, and even when installed by an experienced craftsman, it will not be able to catch a sufficiently powerful signal for high-quality broadcasting of channels.
Advice. Please note that it will not be possible to return such equipment, despite the fact that it will not pick up a signal. After all, it is quite serviceable and the kit is in working condition.
