odilibe: 3 coils of strong wire use a high conversion gain lnb....then try satellite in-line amplifier.....this should be connected at middle of the coaxial cable, between the lnb and the receiver ..it is likely to boost the (dB)signal quality of your satellite reception....Good luck. grin grin
Sir.how many line amp.will I use,b/c it has about 3joinings?

you are probably having loss of signal due to joining of cables and long cable runs..what you need is upto 3 satellite f cable jointing connector for connecting coaxial cables or run a cable without jointing this will reduce signal loss ....one in-line amplifier will do cheesy

AzerSpace 1 / Africasat-1A @ 46° East started test transmission.

Seeing as this bird covers Africa, hope it will bring us some FTA goodies.


olenyi:

Azerspace/Africasat-1a
Under a contract with The Ministry of Communications and Information Technologies of the Republic of Azerbaijan, Orbital designed and built the Azerspace/Africasat-1a commercial communications satellite. Based on Orbital's flight-proven STAR-2 platform, the hybrid C- and Ku-band satellite generates approximately five kilowatts of payload power and carries 36 active transponders. Azerspace/Africasat-1a provides communications services to Azerbaijan, Central Asia, Europe and Africa from an orbital location at46 degrees East Longitude through an arrangement between the Ministry and Measat of Malaysia, which owns the rights to the orbital slot.
Orbital was also responsible for providing the satellite and ground system. Upon completion of in-orbit testing, operational control of the satellite will be handed over to the Ministry, which will continue to operate the spacecraft from its control center in Baku.
Performance:
C-band Repeater: 24 active transponders Ku-bandRepeater: 12 active transponders
Antennas: Two 2.5 x 2.7 m single shell super-elliptical deployable reflectors; one 1.4 x 1.4 m single shell super-elliptical deck-mounted antenna
Stabilization: 3-axis stabilized, zero momentum
Launch Mass: Approximately 3,250 kg (7,163 lb.)
Mission Life: 15 years
Status: Successfully Launched February 7, 2013
Coverage:
Azerbaijan, Central Asia, Europe and Africa
Customer:
The Ministry of Communications and Information Technologies of the Republic of Azerbaijan
Mission:
C- and Ku-band Communications


@Bolded.

Still wondering what happened to nigcomsat. Did it fall out of the sky/orbit or was it all a publicity stunt with our money

Hello all satmate. congratulation George_D for sticking to this forum. I remember visiting this forum at 2010 to read a lot on sat before I joined at 2011. He has always being here to help so many. His work ethics is just special. Big thanks bro for so much you have giving us here. You are always here at all time even when things are not going well. Its like KUNGU when he was at rdi.

I also made the same conclusion that Zuku is far much better than DsThieves. Their movies are excellent. Only the sports side needs improvement.

*How did u join the cables? did you use the f jointing connector...you are loosing signals from joining cables
*look for a higher gain in-line amplifier than the one you have...try 30dB gain in-line amplifier,to compensate for over 100metre of cable ...if available

I'm so much humbled by your kind words of appreciation. In life as in FTA, it is our passion that ultimately drives us forward in
pursuit of a particular cause. Rest assured, the fire for FTA still burns stronger in my veins now more than ever before and God
willing I'll be around for much longer so that together we can continue pushing the frontiers for freedom. The freedom to search for
signals in uncharted regions. The freedom to watch once out-of-reach stations from the comfort of our rooms. The freedom from fear
of exorbitant fees from PAYTV companies bent on milking us to the bones. The freedom to be free!

Even though a huge lot of our old members seem to have fallen by the way side, we that remain will not be deterred. We will
welcome them with open arms (whenever they find it necessary to pop in) but we will remain resolute in our chosen path. We will
not waver and that is a promise! VIVA FTA!!!
