Here you can see the current EGNOS coverage area.
http://www.egnos-pro.esa.int/IMAGEt...io
n.html


As you will notice there is no coverage in South-Africa. Of course the EGNOS signals are distributed using Geostationary
satellites which are also "visible" in South Afrika. So you will have access to the EGNOS corrections. However, the main part of
the correction is the Ionospheric corrections (since EGNOS is intended the help single frequency receivers. And since there are
hardly any EGNOS stations (RIMS) in Afrika there are not (reliable) corrections for Afrika.
