Mandarine City’s
Entrance gate
He tells us that 90%
of his customers opt for
60cm antennas while the
remaining 10% choose
100 cm dishes. “AGILA is
the favorite for my mostly
foreign customers since
mostly English-language
channels can be found
there”, says Hang Hao.
If there aren’t any shops
around where you can get
satellite products, how
does Hang Hao get his
hands on the materials he
needs? He tells us that he
buys them directly from
the manufacturers that are
for the most part in Shenzhen
in China‘s south. But
this only works for those
who buy in large quantities
like Hang Hao.
There’s another source
when smaller quantities
are involved: “That would
be the Electronic Market
on Qinyiang Road right by
the Baoshan Metro station
of lines 3 and 4”, adds our
satellite guide Hong Bo.
So naturally our next
stop takes us to this
market. Here in a maze of
streets and shops where
you’ll find numerous visitors
walking among an
uncounted number of
shops, it didn’t take long
for us to find one that was
selling satellite dishes. In
this case it was the small
35cm antennas for receiving
the Chinese DTH satellites.
We also found
different receiver brands
in another shop. Seek and
yee shall find what you’re
looking for in Shanghai;
you can either have your
system installed by a professional
like Hang Hao or
you can choose to install
it yourself. You just have
to find all the necessary
hardware in Shanghai’s
Electronic Market.
