Max Radio on Dialog TV

Max Radio which is a part of MGM Networks and sister station of Max television is now available on Dialog TV under the radio section. It seems that they are capable of adding radio stations but they do not have sufficient bandwidth to add television stations and are awaiting the completion of installation of equipment to activate transponders 3 and 4 to launch the new channels. Rumors indicate that this will happen by the first week of June.

It is advisable for Dialog TV to add some international (not indian) radio channels to their lineup such as BBC World Service including the Sinhala and Tamil services. Radio channels by ABC Australia, Voice of America and some channels that play quality music. Dialog could introduce a secondary decoder which is dedicated to the Hi Fi set at home which will enable it to be connected to the radio at all times so that subscribers can listen to radio via Dialog TV while others can enjoy the television via the main decoder.

It is a bit confusing why Dialog TV cannot add its sister radio station Neth FM to their lineup of radio channels. Reasons for this are best known to them and hopefully they clarify their position regarding Neth FM.

On other news we learn that almost all subscribers of Dialog TV have received their programme guide for the month of May during the course of last week. If you have not received it yet please make a comment along with your location.

Mario said...

Yo riky ! where are u ??

DLR said...

Yes Sinhala Guy,
I removed my analog anntena just after received DTV connection back. Now I'm watching local channels thru DTV. I'm requesting from dtv to add more local channels with good quality. (I dont mind if you skip Sirasa & MTV, that LTTE supporting , Big head channels). I have never see MAx channel yet, as it starts after I remvoved my anntena.

Some times I feel blogging here is wasting time, B'cos DTV ignor some of our priliminary requests like sending guide on time, Epg etc...

Anyway,
I'm using 5.1 surround system. when dtv is plan to introduce 5.1 sound system with multi language option?
