    Octagon SF918 - Change Campaign ! Important: TILL 31/04/2010 !

    Hello

    There is a change campaign which Octagon offers all 918 owners. It goes only until 31/04/2010 ! So try to inform all 918 owners.

    Please download the pdf file and read it. There are all information.

    PDF FILE:
    Attachment !

    If you send your old 918 back to Octagon and pay additionally 95 € to it, you get a brandnew SF 1008 with fully warranty. If you pay additionally 275 € you geht a SF1018.

    You have to send the old 918 to this adress:

    OCTAGON-Germany
    Bündtenäcker 2
    79730 Murg
    Germany/Deutschland

    If you have any questions just let me know.

    I am confused... I keep getting emails for new images being released for the SF1008 and SF1018 receivers every week

    Is it the 918 which is not being supported anymore hence the exchange scheme?

    The 918HD was the biggest con of the lot
    badly supported from Octagon from day 1

    Now they want us to exchange our
    well earned money for a 1008/1018
    which in six months will be also badly
    supported...go ahead and waste you
    money, me personally would never
    buy any Octagon again, but it makes
    good door wedge for my bedroom
    on hot nights....

    you need null modem cable from pc connect to 918hd use octagon GISOCT loader you have 2 choices with the gisoct loader use octagon. what you do now is turn off box at the back open up gisoct loader press load and then put the file onto loader next 2000 hdtv 107.0 is the one. now press the down button on the 918hd box keeping it pushed in turn the box on at the back
    and then press start on the loader you can now let go of the down button if it dosnt start could be wrong port on pc.

    Thanks, I'll try to see. Beside new packages is there any new functionalities with the next2000 emu (cccam presently can only be activated on one server on 918HD, is the next2000 run more than one?). Any inprovement in the PVR functions (time shift and so on)
    Regards
