Re: Official Thread Of Free To Air Satellite Tv (part 4) by GeorgeD1(m): 11:51am On Jan 27, 2010
@Kcbenjamin,
Unless those stations are on mpeg4, I see no reason why normal 4663x won't be able to open them.

@ George_D

i postrate to greet the king. I want to know if there is any distance btw W4/W7.

How best can i track W7.
Re: Official Thread Of Free To Air Satellite Tv (part 4) by GeorgeD1(m): 12:43pm On Jan 27, 2010
@jayron,
W4 and W7 are in the same position @36 degrees east. W7 has now replaced W4 same DSTV position.
Re: Official Thread Of Free To Air Satellite Tv (part 4) by jayron(m): 12:49pm On Jan 27, 2010
@ George_D

Are u sure there are free channels on W7 and are they H.D?

Re: Official Thread Of Free To Air Satellite Tv (part 4) by GeorgeD1(m): 3:35pm On Jan 27, 2010
@jayron,
According to Kcbenjamin, there seem to be free channels there but personally I didn't see
any apart from CCTV.
Re: Official Thread Of Free To Air Satellite Tv (part 4) by jayron(m): 3:51pm On Jan 27, 2010
@ George_D

Thank you for that.

Any clue to tracking 2M, and is there any assurance of catching fun from the stations. I would do that this weekend.

Over,
Re: Official Thread Of Free To Air Satellite Tv (part 4) by GeorgeD1(m): 4:21pm On Jan 27, 2010
@jayron,
You can track 2m with 90cm but you have to be very patient indeed. Personlly I've only used my
motorised 2.5m mesh to track it with the jack but you can give it a try. Use Arryadia tp (11653v,
15714sr). Make sure you track in the morning hours betwenn 8am and 12pm.
Starting from DSTV position, move the dish up and to your right and keep going as if you want to
track w3a. Do it gently to and bring back again. Just before w3a you will notice a slight breathing
of the red signal bars. Pause and hold the dish in that position then move it a little bit within that
arc to and fro and your green should pop out.

@olofofo,
@Dejsam,
@all,

Has anybody with motorised C-band checked out the global beam on Eutelsat W2A?
It appears the beam is very much concentrated on africa and we should be able to
track it with less than 1.8m dish.

http://www.lyngsat.com/ew2a.html

However, you will need an MPEG4 decoder like 4669x to view the channels.
Somebody should try it out and give us feedback.

It is receivable here. I don't know about anything less than 1.8m though

@all

Has anyone noticed Top tv on sirius 4. Even though the channels appears as scrambled it's showing SABCs and other channels
Re: Official Thread Of Free To Air Satellite Tv (part 4) by Kcbenjamin(m): 9:00pm On Jan 27, 2010
@ salamander as regards to w2a,what position did you use in tracking. is your dish facing Dstv east or w3a east ?
Re: Official Thread Of Free To Air Satellite Tv (part 4) by Kcbenjamin(m): 9:18pm On Jan 27, 2010
@ George_D and all , these tps gave me (1) NTV 11716 H 3141 (2) TPA1 / TPA2 11723 H 6282 (3) TBC1 11713 H 3141

Hopes it shows green on other decoders .
Re: Official Thread Of Free To Air Satellite Tv (part 4) by Ibaku(m): 10:08pm On Jan 27, 2010
@jayron, tracking of 2m on w6 is very technical, what i think u should do is these, use hitv freq 12092 h 27500, while standing behind your dish, get the highest signal then move to your right very slowly untill the signal turns red, stop and move up slowly untill u hit green on freq 11653 v 15714, remember to skew your lnb when u hit green. wish u luck. less i forget change the hitv freq to 2ms before moving up.

@ salamander as regards to w2a,what position did you use in tracking. is your dish facing Dstv east or w3a east ?

I have 2.4m mesh motorised. As at now the signal is cracking. I don't know if it is due to bad weather or not. So I will wait up till tomorrow to see what happens
Re: Official Thread Of Free To Air Satellite Tv (part 4) by Ibaku(m): 10:45pm On Jan 27, 2010
@salamander, which reciever and lnb was able to lock the signal for you ? have a good night rest.
