@Freshp
You are welcome bro.
@All
The page www.crosat.us is now back. Looks like they have moved it to another site and this time you need to register to access the files. Using it's original address you are then redirected to www.digital-target.org and everything is the same except for some few changes like page theme (colour) etc.
Kungu:

The is a option website with same format of file storage but different name, http://www.super-sat.net/

Thanks Kungu for the update. We now have an alternative in case we lose Crosat and Wizkid. Websites are being hacked at will now.

If you have managed to track Sirius 4 then it's easy. W3a is just a few inches above Sirius 4. Check lyngsat for frequencies and use the one for RTS1 for tracking.

Re: Free To Air Satellite Tv General Thread by Pidzo(m): 10:53am On Jan 19, 2012
Funny because the old TP for MGM on w2a is still green but showing nothing. Thanks I will rescan w2a. what about film max on paksat 1r 38degrees. Are you able to pick it? The TP is also green but showing nothing.
@Lunsat
Filmax is back on Paksat 1R frequency 3832 V 2500.
Re: Free To Air Satellite Tv General Thread by trek4000: 2:31pm On Jan 19, 2012

Re: Free To Air Satellite Tv General Thread by Lunsat(m): 3:47pm On Jan 19, 2012

Good afternoon trek4000,

Try Paksat 1R which has its C band beam covering your region,
In Zambia use a 1.8 meter ( 3 foot) prime focus satellite dish.

[img]http://www.paksat.com.pk/images/C_band_coverage_EIRP.jpg[/img]

For tracking use frequency 4158 V DVB-S 12000.

Once on Paksat 1R enter frequency 3832 V DVB-S 2500
Flimax channel offering both movies and series.


Happy hunting,

I usually watch Filmax on Paksat 1R, World Movie on Thaicom 5, MGM on W2A, among other channels that show movies once or twice a day. Surely you can capture all these sats. wink wink

I will try to assist you and I hope Gurus in the house will help me.
1. For w3a I don't know if it is possible in your area to get it (I hear you are using mesh) since Freshp said its 'impossible' to get it using mesh. Would someone please tell us otherwise?
2. For w4/7 (Dstv) - What is your signal strength? If the Multichoice tps are lower RDV and co wont come.
3. Tweaking Lnb - Gurus will most of the times say "tweak your lnb to 4 oclock as you stand in front (or back) of your dish." What they mean is that you should look at your dish and imagine it to be a clock with hour hands. In your head put the hour numbers from 1 to 12 on the dish as they appear on a clock. So if they say 'tweak it to 3 oclock' just put the LNB knob where you feel three oclock on your imaginary clock would be. Don't forget to check if they say 'in front' or 'standing at the back of the dish'
I hope someone will come in with how you can use Lyngsat or Flysat. If you go back to earlier posts there are very good explanations that would surely assist you in what you want to do. Feel free to ask for assistance or clarification where you are lost. grin

@ pboy2buzy, u did not tell us your location, however if u are in naija u should receive w3a.
Start by re-aligning ur ku lnb properly on the dish. u should get 95- 97% on dstv with 2.4m mesh dish. If u achieve this ur w3@ will come up
