satellite tv how it works
Will a UK PAL TV (Thomson Scenium) work in Barbados for receiving digital satellite?
I have a Thomson Scenium 27LCDB03BBK that I bought in the UK 2 or 3 years ago but have now brought over to Barbados having just moved there. I am about to subscribe to DirecTV digital satellite TV and ideally don’t want to have to buy a new TV. However I am aware of the different set-ups (NTSC vs PAL) but am unsure how much of an impact it will have, and whether I can change any settings on my existing TV if necessary.
If your TV is region-free (ie, supports NTSC, PAL and SECAM), then it may just be changing a setting (though this would be rare).
More than likely you’re going to need a physical adapter to convert the NTSC signal to PAL. Be careful – since this is an active conversion the quality of the adapter does matter.
