I'm also experience it too

i had the same problems nailing the 2 birds with 1 lnbf (hitting 64 apiece,but mbc 1&2 would not stay on round the clock),then i tried 2 lnbf's with W3 as my prime and SIRIUS as offset all to no avail until i made SIRIUS4 my prime and W3 the offset,now i have 75% for W3 and 80% for SIRIUS4 with MBC 1&2 always green and on.N/B I USE 1MTR dish.

Thanks for the response bro. Maybe i will try that one day. How will w3a position on sirius 4? is it from the right,left,top or below? Just to save me time. Cheers!

Hello all. I was able to track the w3a, how ever i cant get mbc. I only get some arabic and african channels. I used a satellite meter, which showed its locked on w3a. Am using a strong 4669x. Any idea what could be wrong?

@ stiyke u cannot receive w3a with 60cm dish. it is best viewed with a 90cm dish. N.B. try tracking w3a in the evening to get mbc 1, 3 loud and clear with the other channels. thank you.

Thank you all for your reply. Assuming i have another 90cm dish, which other fta satellite apart from w3a can i search for?

if you have been able to nail w3a that means you have a 90cm dish .and i guess u used 12728/30000/H to get the stations u are viewing now.believe me u can get mbc 1&2 if only u try a little bit harder,follow these steps if u want to get mbcs

1.let ur dish be a minimum of 90cm
2.let ur lnbf be between 7 and 8 o'clock,
3.adjust ur dish using 12728/30000/H till u get at least 65% and lock it.
4.input 11195/03210/H and pingo!!! u will definitely have mbc 1&2 loud and clear.

please don,t give up you can do it.THAT IS THE SPIRIT OF FTA goodluck

@stiyke u v 2b patience wt w3a.It tkes tym&try 2trk it

Gurus in the house. I have been able to nail eutel w4/w7, astra 2b, and sirius4 with less stress, much thank to the info I got here.
Don't really love the fta on sirius4 so decided to check what w3a has to offer. On both V and H polarity of w3a, the best signal i could get is 65%. And this was after I rotated d lnb screw to get the max signal.
With 65% on tp 12728, signals on 10976 and 11192 failed to turn green. I would like to know guys if 65 or 67% is the best everyone is getting on their w3a installations cos i believe if I could get 80%, 10976 n 11192 will def turn green.

Would also like to know where I can get free to air etv, cos the one on sirius4 seems to be encrypted. Thanks in advance guys.

Please, is anybody able to track TVM i.e.  TV  Malagasy. What is the maximum signal strength that one can attain for this TP 10976 H 3333?

Please, i an answer as i would be tracking W3A later in the day after close of business from office.

Expecting your replies.

Thank you.

that channel is not reliable at the moment

Guy, if TVM's 10976 ain't reliable, what about MBC's 11192.

Worst, Use tv zimbo

Plz my w3 hßs nt been wrken 4d past 3dy nw.Its only 1music&hi nolly dt r hitten green.Plz sm1 shld hlp me cnfirm

@ugotuf and the rest of the gang:

Please, I need help in hitting EW3 with a quality level of at least 75 percent while the lnb is at 6 O'clock. It is like an unattainable feat to me. In my former bode and town, I was able to hit the bird with a quality of 75 percent but with the lnb at 9 O'clock. Any one who has succeeded to hit 75 percent and above (lnb at 6 o'clock) should come to my rescue.

@Lovala:
I once had a problem like yours hitting only 55% quality, the sat meter just nodding abit to indcate the sat. What I did was to unsrew my 90cm dish and put it on the verandah facing down. I noticed that two sides touched the verandah while two sides where in the air. I pressed it gently until the entire ream touched the verandah on all sides. When I put it back  and tracked W3A  the sat metre swang wildly to the right and I have been hitting 75%-80% since then.

LOVALA,TRY REMOVING THE WHITE PLASTIC COVERING IN FRONT OF YOUR LNBF AND TRY ALTERNATING YOUR POLARITY H/V WHILE ON 6O'CLOCK AND LET ME KNOW YOUR RESULT.

@Lunsat :
Thankx for ur advice. Will check that method out to see if my dish is impaired.

Wt's your dish size

@Yinka4dad : 90cm

@Ugotuf : I never knew that the cap of the lnbf could be removed. Could it also be replaced once removed ? I’ll get on it and give you the feed back. Thankx all the same, my man.

hi lovala you can replace the cover if you wish,but i am very sure it will bring about improvement on the signal
