TV on Play Store at SS

By -
In Satguru Shlok, you don’t need TV in every room, although nobody is stopping you if you like to. But the building is wholly wired internally so that ugly wires that you see them swinging from one building to another are not visible in our building, The wires come into building underground ,discreetly, and transports to every flat at certain points only. All the room  in each flat have such wires installed , but at one wall only. Your TV guy knows how to extract those wires into your room and get you TV connection. It is important to check where those points are, before you start to redesign the placement of your furniture and put fixtures on your wall. Hammering the wall with nails above these points can puncture the wires behind the wall.

Some members did have problem when they didn’t plan or had overlooked these switches. They had to redo the wiring and shift their plug points to their desired position, but that is so cumbersome, plus of course extra expenses.

I am not much fond of TV so I have TV only in two rooms. There is no TV in my living room nor is in my bedroom.

I have normal Win cable connection in one bedroom and advance IPTV in my media room. 

 I am not too happy with IPTV because it is dependent on WIFI so if I have connection problems, the IPTV also blackens out. IPTV is the new technology and is still having teething problems, maybe in long run it might get better when more internet programs get installed. You will be able to see TV broadcasted from around the world and be able to watch movies and other programs at your request. There is UTUBE and some movies already downloaded, there are many different language programs from other side of the globe too. There are Japanese, Chinese, German , Urdu and many other languages too.  (for example..If I have guests from Spain, they can watch HBO in Spanish. ) IPTV is just like a computer and I am sure it will have great future when it become fully functional. 

 To get more information on IPTV you could READ HERE

 But still, presently I would have prefered TATA SKY.  (Known from unknown) but that would be available only if there were more members demanding it. It might be a big effort because whole new wiring may have to be installed internally. I am not too sure if the wires are already installed)

Sometimes, I want to watch TV while having lunch (Just time pass, you know, specially when food is not to my liking and TV is a good distraction..



On such days I watch TV on my mobile. Our building has WIN cable connection and if you download WIN-GO from play store on your mobile, you will get 20 free channels on your mobile that includes news, music, spiritual and some movie channels too.



So go on, if you are residing at Satguru Shlok, download the app called WIN-GO from your play store  and enjoy the TV on your mobile screen..all for free………

One more meeting in June 2013

By -
Last sunday, had a general body meeting. everybody in the building is eager for redevelopment but there is always one point which lags and delays the project Most of the meeting was spend discussing the parking space for the present members. Flat owners who have more that 764 sq mt are entitled for 2 parking spaces, but the builder has agreed only for those over 900sq mts, that leaves 5 more flats which needs to be negotiated. Every paper takes 2-3 months to pass and every argument takes 2-3 months to dissolve..well two years have passed by with no results so far. There is also discussion on having a glass building which some members feel it looks too gross and commercial. Well, that will be discussed on another day, when? still waiting......

I Am Back Home From Daulat Baugh To Satguru Shlok

I am back again after four years of silence on this blog. The building went for redevelopment, I knew I would miss my building where I have lived for over forty years. Every brick sighed and its breath diminished each day as the day approached for redevelopment. I remember the last rainy day in June 2014, the building wept. I had moved out for two years and taken a small flat close by. When I moved, what I missed the most was my balcony. Nine feet by four feet balcony was the area where I would spend most of my evenings. As the sun slumped across the horizon, its golden rays filtered though the tall trees spreading its warmth over me. I sat in my balcony with a cup of tea on the ledge and a mobile in my hand. Many evenings were spent sipping tea and surfing through my ‘WatsApp’ messages. Sometimes I would listen to the music and sometimes watch videos on its tiny screen. Then there would be chats on social media, forward messages to read or the missed phone call to...

Clean and Green Society Gets Rebate on Property Tax.

During one of our meeting before redevelopment, there was talk of   rain water harvesting but I don’t think that there is any provision in our new building or is there? When our building was under construction, I had expressed the desire of installing solar panels on the terrace. Due to lack of space on the terrace, this idea was not received well. I wish we had found some space to install solar panels to cover at least the cost of society electricity bills. Our building is well lighted from all angles of our society, inside out, at the flower beds, at the pools, in the lobby and common areas, and it does look beautiful, it is a good feeling, but I am dreading the huge electricity bill that i will have to pay. Moreover, carrying out environment friendly  measures gets 10 percent discount on property tax. Today I receive a circular from BMC to segregate  dry and wet waste. This is a good idea and is accepted in all countries around the world. It is eco friendl...
