darey501: pls som1 shuld help, i hav a 1.8k dish already mounted facing west and a srt4663x decoder am in kabba kogi, pls hw can i track nilesat. 08133108358.

olenyi:

First of all couple the dish together (dis might be difficult except u look at ur neighbours already coupled own). Locate ur ''east'' from ur proposed dish mount point (making sure u have a clear line of sight to the horizon up to the sky). Mount ur dish (also looking at ur neighbours own for the exact mount setting)Then fix the metallic f connector at both ends of ur cable. Screw one end to the lnb at the front of the dish. Get an extension box to help bring ur ''mains'' to a point near ur mounted dish. bring out ur tv to the dish point and put it on. Connect ur receiver also to the extension box. Now screw on the other end of the cable to the point at the back panel of ur receiver labeled ''lnb input''. Connect the av wires and put it on also. (IT VERY IMPORTANT U FOLLOW THE SEQUENCE OF MY INSTRUCTIONS.)

Now as the receiver is a new one, ''ok'' every option on the screen until u get to the home screen and u see ''no or bad signal'' press menu on the remote. Press ok. Enter 4 zero's for the pin and scroll down to manual scan. Press ok. Now using the right volume button, start scrolling through the satellites until u get ''astra 1N/2abd. When u get it, scroll down to frequency and using the left volume button now, start lookin for 12.5 something something. Press zero when u get it and select edit. Enter 12.523. Scroll down to ''symbol rate'' and enter 19531. Hand the ''polarization'' to ''v'' if its not so.

Phew!!!!!

If u've gotten to this point, Then u're doing great.

Now go to ur dish. And standing at the back of the dish or hanging from a ladder, (and with ur eyes on the two red signal bars at the top right hand side of ur screen) and with ur lnb positioned in such a way dat the point with u screwed on the cable is at 4 o'clock assuming u have an imaginary clock in ur head. Start raising the dish slowing up, up , up until it pointing to the sky still with ur eyes on the signal bar for when it will turn to green to indicate u've gotten a signal (remember it should be facing east). Bring it down slowly. Now shift the dish a tiny bit horizontal to the right. (remember u're at the back of the dish)

Take it up up up again and down. Right, up up up and down. Slowly. Keep at it until u hit green or until u get to ur south. If no green. Den start repeating the steps again but this time, shift horizontally to ur left.

When u hit green, adjust the dish a little to maximize the signal percentage and then tighten the 4 screws by the side of th dish and also the ones holding it to the pole arm all this while slowly and wit ur eyes on the signal so dat it doesn't go down.. When this is done, rotate the lnb a little clockwise and a little anticlockwise to get the best position for max signal and tighten.

Hmmm.... Tired now

We're almost dia.

When dis is done, press the red button to scan. Afterwards, exit everything until it starts showing at the home screen.

Regards.

Pls help needed,will enternally be in ur debt tanx so much for ur time.still waiting for ur email.

olenyi:

Dia's no way out. Either u get the recommended receiver or 4940. Dat's the only receivers dat can work for paid mytv channels. Why not apply for upgrade to mytv. Call dia customer care and request to be assigned an upgrade code which when u receive it, u can approached any participating dealer around ur area for a new receiver at under #8000.

Regards.

astanco: I can back afta a gruelling semester to find out my dish is off the roof . Starting 4rm d scratch,how do I track multi tv. Graphics wil be appreciated

olenyi:

Basically, when u get an lnb. The place where u affix the cable. If u place it at 3' o'clock (using an imaginary clock hand position in ur head) or there about, we say it's at horizontal, with respect to ur ''H'' setting in ur decoder. Like wise, when its at 6 o'clock, its at vertical. (for KU lnb)

But the default lnb position is at 3.o'clock irrespective of whether the freq is V or H. This is just a loose description and doesn't really explain it but just to give u an idea.

The ''H'' or ''V'' values are given by the broadcaster, and is included in any frequency given, eg 12.523 V 19531.

In the case of the above, u get it by placing ur lnb at 3'o'clock. But if for some reason u change the V to H on ur own, then u will now change the default lnb position from 3.o'clock to 6 o.clock.

Regards.
