Then, you need to change your lnb. Note: Everybody who tracks satellite himself should endeavour to have spare LNBFs because in most cases the first and easiest thing to do is change the lnb if nothing happens then you can proceed with other troubleshooting.

Will give this a try.... I'm suspecting the LNBF sha, maybe it's getting weak. abi C-Band LNBF no fit get weak.
If it not showing any signs of attracting signal, then it's bad not weak. It's when it drops signal quality.

If you have another cband lnbf, try it first or buy another one, it won't be waste afterall you will even need a backup lnbf.

brother, i try to hit Sport24 on East, I hit only Tchad TV with 52% only. I try more and more to increase this signal but Nothing changed. LNB is Super California with 15°K.

I am from East Africa, I have Sport24 on other 1.8m with Super California 17°K very stable. but this on refused to get it. that is way I thought is because is old dish.

52% on Tchad is poor signal, try swap the lnb and if it doesn't improve then you can try repaint or foil the dish for 'slightly' improved signal but from my experience what makes dish misbehave is bends. Your dish is losing paint but not rusting in my eyes unless the picture is deceiving me. Most times even rusted dishes still perform well, we repaint to prevent rust which damages the dish pan.

If I may ask which sport24 are you receiving on 1.8M?

Is it the one on 57e or 34w?

Well for us here in Nigeria, it is nearly always impossible to nail the sport24 @57e on 1.8M. However, one can get Tchad and BFBS channels on 1.8M.

Think twice before touching that dish coz your dish in good shape

Since the tp started showing green&red it means your are very close.you may have to work with your LNB,move it in and out alot of tweaking to balance the signal

I am coming from East Africa, Kigali , Rwanda. I have other 1.8m which is pointed to 57e and Sport24 is very stable. but on this dish is more complicated.
