In order to receive 437 MHz (70cms) DATV on a standard satellite STB, you need to up convert the signal to L band. Luckily there is a consumer device available in the USA which is used on cable networks to up convert UHF signals to L Band where they are then received on a standard satellite box. The units are made by a company called Zinwell and known as SUP-2400. They are available on ebay but only in the US and so are stocked in the [https://batc.org.uk/shop/hardware-and-kits BATC shop].

However, before use on 70cms, they either require hardware modification as described in CQ-TV 239 and the document available for download further down this page, or the use of the Diseqc controller as described in CQ-TV 250 - [[SUP2400 DiSEqC|details available here]] - to work on DATV.
