DStv

DStv is MultiChoice s multi-channel digital satellite TV service in Africa, launched in 1995. In South Africa and neighbouring countries, it broadcasts on ku-Band, which only requires a small satellite dish, while the rest of Africa receives broadcasts via C-Band. Subscribers in South Africa also receive the South African Broadcasting Corporation s three terrestrial channels, SABC1, SABC2 and SABC3. These are not available to subscribers elsewhere, for rights reasons, although they receive the SABC Africa channel.

DStv also has separate bouquets of channels in Portuguese language, German language, and Indian languages.
