@Dolpaz W3a and W4/7 are not on the same position.W3a is located on 7E you can get it with 90cm/1m dish. while W4/7 is located on 36E where you get dstv/hitv and others like ATN,RDV and more.you get this with with 60cm dish or higher.

So please would i raise it up or bring it down from dstv position. I use a 90cm dish.

If you have read the reply carefully given to you by  the two sat-mate you will understand that to get W3a,you need a different dish
about 90cm or above to nail that bird,so it is not a matter of moving up and down what you have already.

But in case you don't want the position of your dish anymore then,stand behind your dish turn it to your right hand side about
some few inches and raise it up using this tp: 12728 v 30000. You will need to read the thread from beginning to know how to go about it.

I will advise u to get urself 1meter dish so that he can be easier 4u to nail.enjoy

standing behind ur dish from dstv position raise it up almost facing the sky, move to ur right abt 30degree. Hope u understand.

Thanks Broda, i appreciate this info so much, please how many free channels can i receive on the W4/7 position, am planning to get anoda dish to the one i have, i want to combine it with the astra 2b i have with srt 4669xii

Thanks a lot, i'm greatful

@all

if you having signal issue on your w3a, i will advice you use 90cm for optimal signal instead of 60cm or 30cm dish,

at least that will give you up to 72% signal strength!

@ TOWNJUJU, thank you for helping BasseyJ out.

On W4/7 you can have over 12 channels,if you should combine with Astra you heading towards 30 channels.

Well for W4/7 and Astra you need a standard lnb similar to what to have already,I don't know the price in your location but
if you can afford premium2 hd lnb or spit fire lnb good enough.

@FTA dream, thanks very much, i appreciate ur kind gesture, will try and get the same LNB am using for my astra 2b, have a nice day, Peace Out

@ Dolpaz, ! thank you my brother have a blessed day,fta for live.

I discovered that it is easier tracking W3A wth my LNB skewed to 7pm of the clock while the polarity is Vertical. First track Sirius or Astra 4a with your lnb at 9 o'clock and your polarity vertical. note that sirius is towards the setting sun although i sometimes pick it from the east with even higher quality. once u hit it, let ur dish stand and input 12728V30000 for W3a and skew your lnb to 7pm. lover the dis gently and to your left while standing behind d dish.
tell us what happens.

Once you've got the signal, the rest is up to you. tweak ur lnb or move your dish up and down and side to side to get something higher. Also, if ur dish is less than 90cm don't expect much. You may also chang your lnb. I've not used it yest but I hear tell that Tokyosat lnb is marvelous. try it and give us your feedback. here in Yaounde it costs just FCFA2000 about 525 naira there in Naija.
Hope this helps.

Tried tweaking and only got it to 59% and i'm using 90cm dish with strong LNBF.
I'll change the LNBF when d money for dat comes, but between sirus and w3, which one is more interesting?

both are interesting but w3a is more patronised because of MBC 1,3 with football matches in english commentary. but if u r interested in French the best option is Sirius 4 or astra 4a with Francophone music, French ligue 1 as well as Hip hop and RnBs (stv 1). Viva for life

my people. i have finally tracked w3a on my 90cm dish. got a signal quality of 70- 75% on 12728V30000. but my major problem

right now is that blind-scanning w3a brings out the same stations as blind-scanning sirius 4 tp as both of them is showing

green in my present position and the most important of all, i am not getting any of the mbc channel. pls i need to know what i

am doing wrong. thank you.

@~GANDALF~:

If the 75 persent quality is for 12728v30000, then, just input 11191v3206 and it will pop out, GREEN. else, you may be scanning 12605v29950 for Sirius 4a and as such u can't pick any of the Rodrigues.

@Gandalf: Which lnbf did u use? On sirus i can get up to 81% but w3a is 57%.

use 2n1 lnb

aro seyi:

use 2n1 lnb

2n1 lnbf as in 2 lnbf in one dish or one lnbf with two outputs?
What i wanted to know from gandalf is the name of the lnbf he used to get the 7enty something % quality he said he got.
