    Hi guys,

    Anyone know is MMDS analogue is still going ?
    Also, can anyone tell me info on the down-converter on the antenna ?
    I think it's a 12v DC supply.. is that from the STB or external PSU ?

    TIA,
    R

    Chorus is still providing the analogue MMDS service to many areas (although they will no longer take any more new subscribers). The picture quality is not the best.

    The antenna uses a 24v down-converter power supply, and this is provided from an external PSU (black box).

    Hope this answers your question

    To add, the NTL MMDS service is now all-digital, but their MMDS subscriber base was never very big anyway.

    Well they had a good 22,000 odd customers in Dublin, Galway, Waterford and Kildare combined. The analogue quality was dire though, so I'm not surprised they had such poor subscriber rates.
