@ Adex70,
I don't from him at all. The guy is now a ghost but was and is still a living legend. Whiles others were just using satellite for TV, he was streaming movies and radio on demand with free internet over satellite. It's over 2 yrs now since i last heard of him. Who knows what he might be doing now. Anyway, we still here and will keep searching.


He is in another forum he started trying to cure A.S.A.S patients

pedronaran62: modification to my 1.8m prime focus sat dish
The formular for calculating the focal length of a parabolic dish is given below...

Focal length=f
Depth=c
Diameter=D

f=(D * D)/(16 * c)

what i mean, if the depth of your dish has increased or changed and the diameter also increased...from your pics..why is your focal point still constant?..just wondering grin grin

olenyi: @Oga George_D.

Please is ur Nigerian Mux still firing and whats ur signal strength like.

My warm regards.

@olenyi,
No. It seems our initial optimism about that Nigerian Mux may have been misplaced.
Either it has moved or the dBW of that TP is so low as not be of any use to us here
in these parts.

This is so frustrating! angry

@George_D
i thought as much..because after trying everything including your suggestions i still could not nail it so i had to ask another guru here(swordswifter) he told me it was just not worth the effort cos it was like the beam was meant for europe...Its just so frustrating to quote you.sorry i did not update the house earlier on.

My brother ,
the situation is so tiresome ..imagine all our west and east african brothers having their stations beaming to them and receivable with as low as 60m dishes....while we here in nigeria have to go the extra mile to receive our own channels...and they even allow third party vendors to sell what should be free to us . .what kind of country are we in. [size=24pt]DAMN FRUSTRATING IF I MUST SAY!!![/size]
