Yes. It is absolutely true that if you have installed an unbranded Freedish antenna, then consider it useless for you because that antenna may not be able to scan the newly added TV channels. The reason for this is that earlier DD Freedish had only one frequency Horizontal, and Vertical feed was being used for all other frequencies. But now the new frequencies coming in horizontal feed.
As if -
- 11550/H/29500
- 11630/H/29500
- 11670/H/29500
- 11510 / H / 29500 (Currently closed)
Note - Testing is going on right now, so the frequency is sometimes coming and sometimes it is going, the signal is also getting less and more.
Why will the unbranded dish antenna not work?
Unbranded Freedish antennas will not work, as they are designed to only receive vertical feed signals. This type of dish antenna is in vertical shape (standing). The width in these is negligible because most of the factories save iron from it. And none of the rules for receiving satellite signals are given priority in these. Shopkeepers get this type of dish antenna in the market at wholesale rates from 160 to 300, then they sell it to customers for 400 to 500. (Estimated price figure)
Because to produce a good DTH antenna, required good metal, good powder coating, and the best size of the dish antenna, which is capable of receiving both Horizontal and Vertical feeds, this type of DTH antenna is expensive.
It costs the shopkeepers around 350 to 600, so there is a problem in selling them, due to being expensive, people buy cheap antennas, which do not withstand rain well and get damaged due to rust, while branded DTH antennas Last for years, like antennas of other DTH companies, last for a long time.
Note - Tata Sky antenna image used just for an example and education.
That's why you should try to buy branded DD-free dish antenna and that too with a GST bill. With this, you will get signals of all frequencies for receiving all 300+ channels, and you will not waste money on installation and buying a new DTH antenna every year during the rainy season.
