Older news release from Nokia. Their open system set top in the UK................. nokia.com Nokia First to Launch Digital Satellite Receiver in The UK (March 13, 1997) -- As part of a European launch, Nokia Multimedia Network Terminals is launching its Mediamaster DVB 9200S Free To Air - an easy-to-use digital satellite receiver with capabilities to receive clear unencrypted digital programmes - the first manufacturer to launch a digital satellite receiver in the UK. The Nokia Mediamaster DVB 9200S Free To Air is a member of a new family of multimedia terminals and digital satellite receivers from Nokia and is not only fully DVB (digital video broadcast) MPEG 2 compliant but is the most flexible and easy-to-use digital satellite receiver in the world. It is also one component in a large network for entertainment and communication. It has a dynamically variable bandwidth from 2 to 54mhz (1to 45MS/s) allowing optimal use of any transponder and is capable of receiving both SCPC (single channel per carrier) and MCPC (multi channel per carrier) channels from both Ku-band and C-band satellites. The Mediamaster's Electronic Programme Guide enables users to scroll through hundreds of channels on offer and pre-programme their own personal selection of channels. The receiver will also sort channel numbers and satellites so programmes or broadcasts can be selected by name. Graham North, Nokia's director of sales and marketing in the UK comments, "The launch of the Free To Air digital receiver heralds the start of the digital age for the British consumer - it is a considerable achievement for Nokia. There are a number of free digital channels already available such as BBC World, Italian Telepiu, MBC and RTC mainly distributed from the Eutelsat satellite. The launch of Nokia's Free To Air box allows consumers to receive these channels with the crystal sharp pictures and excellent sound synonymous with Nokia ." Nokia Mediamaster DVB 9200S Free To Air The Mediamaster DVB 9200S Free To Air is available from the end of March 1997 and has a guide retail price of œ529.99. It will be on display for the first time at this year's Electrical Retailing Show at the NEC 23-25 March. Free To Air channels are listed on the Internet at satcodx.com.
