Saipro: Wrong thread but I'm sure someone here has tried tracking MBC on Badr @ 26E.
I'm trying to draft a backup plan for when MBC migrates to Eutelsat 7W & becomes (possibly) unreceivable by we <3.0m dish owners. Though my simple setup with an "ordinary" cut-up LNBF on a fibre 2.6 dish bests many guys (in Southern/Western/Eastern Nigeria) on a reception basis (@68%). Can't bank on that for the seemingly imminent migration (Eutelsat 7W). Focused help would be much appreciated.

PS: Has anyone noticed Eutelsat 7W (dubbed Nilesat 107) is slightly off from Nilesat 102 & 201. Noticed a while back but thought it worthwhile mentioning for guys tracking either satellite (it's infinitely easier tracking Al Jazeera on Eutelsat 7W as a start-off point)

@Saipro. This thread looks like its going to be interesting this coming year.
Though i haven't tried the bard bird, but it, definitely looks like an option when the worst happens. Lets keep our fingers crossed.

Nice work there. Warm (pun intended in this cold weather) Regards.

How can I get an installer that will supply all that is needed for me to receive aljazeera sports etc and handle the installation. I will like to know the total cost for all that is involved. I am in calabar. My phone number is 08053279971. Email....fineworker24@in.com.

George_D: auchs,
good work there.maybe i should try this with my own digisat and see how it all plays out.

George I will appreciate if you try, it surely works well.

auchs,
yes, i will certainly do that.

Welcome to my world of pain & frustration. Anyway, go to LyngSat, FlySat or any of the other popular sites and input the the NWA beam frequencies (you find there) on your receiver & scan. The available channels ought popup effortlessly. Regarding the MENA beam, investigations are ongoing.

And 3m isn't really the biggest out there ...

santa cruz will visit you today! frequencies for both jsc 1-4 on nile 102 and jsc 5-10 on nile 201 I am just happy today.

Congrats! Lucky you for nailing those channels. I can also see you did a blind scan.
But before your euphoria fades & the elation leaves your bones, I'd like to set you off on a little, pesky quest:
You see, I wish I had your Humax with your 3m dish. But I don't. I get the same signal strength on my 2.6m fibre dish & SRT 4669X II. In Ilorin, Kwara state, Nigeria.
My request if for you to either knock down one of the MENA channels on Eutelsat 7W (roughly same spatial location on the West coast) or tackle Euronews/BBC on Nilesat 201.
Then tell us how you did it. It's driving me nuts as my yard can't accommodate a 5m dish (I had to unearth & relocate my ground mount in order to even tolerate the 2.6m dish)

My MBC channels are gone! Has the worst happened?

Saipro: My MBC channels are gone! Has the worst happened?

The scary shít was a false alarm. The channels are back. A brown-out? Warning cuts? My blood pressure's rising!

Unless you're up to something illegal or wrong, I believe the original question was thrown into the open & an open reply would be beneficial to more than just a person

Thanks but at the time of writing my post, the reply was quite different. And he humbly (and quietly) made amends. Quite admirable. I almost missed his amendments. He's earned both my respect & admiration.

Your dish size of 1m can only afford u aljazeera news english but in good hands you get the mbcs that cracks frm time to time.
A 1.8M will offer u more stable channels and a 2.4 or 2.6M Will give u every thing including CNN, JSC SPORT,ADD, Orbit-showtime.
