Television in Uganda

This section has transformed a lot bearing in mind that in the past we used to have only one channel that could start broadcasting at 6:00pm and Close at 10:00pm. Yes up to now they still can't broadcast 247 but at least the channel will be on 247 with BBC or Aljazeera bridging the gap.

DSTV - Digital Satellite TV is available in Uganda and the head office is on Buganda Road with a branch at Garden city plus many support centres around town. The call center number is 0312-245245 though NOT toll free so you should expect some Shakira tracks in the background at the expense of your airtime. If luck is on your side they can call you back supposing your airtime runs out before tabling your complaint. The lowest package is at 50,000/- per month of course after the initial charges that include a decoder and dish
NTV Uganda - Nation Television is elaborative with a detailed analysis of news in and around the country. Located on channel 141(DSTV). Try them on Sunday 7:30pm for Barbed Wire.
UBC - Formerly Uganda Television and now Uganda Broadcasting Corporation is the oldest Television broadcaster in Uganda. Owned by Government and on channel 140(DSTV) Try them on Thursday 10:30pm for Da Beat
WBS - Wavah Broadcasting Station another worth trying channel though not on DSTV.

Other Television stations are Record TV, NBS Tv, East African Television,
