Here is a step by step guide on how to tune your South African multichoice DSTV decoder to free to air signals:

But only worry about network 2 and change the settings to the following:

Satellite: IntelSat 20
Frequency: 12602
Symbol Rate: 26657
FEC: 2/3
Polarization: Horizontal

Hie, does it have to be necessarily network 2 or you can put the settings on any network
