We got our 1st cable connection in 2001. At that time we had B&W TV with shutter from both side. At that time hardly 15-20channels were there.

Then back in 2014 We shifted to airtel DTH.

And then from 2021 august , completely shifted to OTT model from DTH. Currently using no cable or dth service.
