Try to use a 22KHZ switch it might solve your problem.I tried it at my setup but the receiver could not respond to both switches.
OK Thafadhali "what type of receiver are using? Mine is 4992 A HD Asante sana

What does this mean?
l have not tried this but it should work: if you are south of equator and you have a motorised set up you will notice this: when dish is moving East decoder is saying moving West and vice versa. This is because the software developers have a. Middle east perspective. With hex editor on a pc you can open the decoder software and search for the word East and change it to west and find the word West and change it to east and save. Load software in decoder and and now East will be East and west will be West. If you find the word STRONG you can even change it to Lunsat and Lunsat will splash on your screen when your decoder starts. Try and report back.

If you read my past posts on that 3-in-1 setup, saw the pix and have the frequencies for the 3 birds, you are good to go then.
STEPS:
------
1. (Standing behind your dish)From your multitv or amos@17' position, move your dish to your right towards where you see the sun setting in the evenings, input the frequency of star movies plus (11150/V/45000)on ABS3@3'W and track till you hit green. Lock your dish there and blind scan after you have gotten the best quality.
2. Get another lnbf, locàte SES5@4.8' on your receiver and input this frequency (12015/V/29951), place your lnbf below the primary to the left of the arm and play around there till you hit green, then secure your lnbf with a binding wire or any rope of your choice and blind scan after you have gotten the best quality.

3. Get the 3rd lnbf, locate Eutel7'W and input (11559/V/27500). This time you will have to play above the primary lnbf with your skew at 9 o'clock till you hit green.
Tweak till you get 63% to avoid
cracking of the mbc stations and blind scan.
Goodluck and let your next post here be a positive testimony.

Dear ugotof,
I think I need your help.
I'm a noob in this department. I just got a 40in screen. I would love to watch all those great channels on my new slate.
I have sought help on different platforms and I've been asking questions but it seems people are not ready to help.
Note that I don't mind DIY or pay someone to do it. Though I'd prefer DIY
I'm aware that the decoder that comes in-built the tv is no good for good channels like Sport channels and the likes. Someone mentioned I get a CAM module for the TV but it seem it's not the best way to go

Can you please tell me the options. I would like something that doesn't involve anything above 1m dish.
Note that I am ready to experiment.
Currently I am watching GOTV on UHF, thanks to the RF connection from the Decoder in the Family room.

I stay in Osogbo, Osun State.

Thanks in advance,

If ABS is 78% then Eutelsat 7.3 is there for you to take. Look and observe closely the picture I posted on Sunday. It will help you.

OK we are using the same type but today I went to check for a switch I see a brand didn't copy the name but its the same capacity as the vsat type displayed in the diagram of page 1109, 5-1000MHZ but no 22kHZ written on it so I don't know whether to buy it & see if will work or look for a brand with 22KHZ Tahfadhali Mduguwamgu what type of switch did you try that didn't work? Asante. Viva Fta.

Guys, spent d whole day battling IS 20 in my medium-size backyard. Used 3900H22222 & 3739H26590 but all was in vain though. But I wanna ask; if I have about 7m(22feet) infront of my dish b4 my neighbour's fence, can it probably obstruct IS 20 signal? My dish is 2.4m pan; neighbour's fence top is same level wth ctr of my dish. pls yr opinion, thanx

Use TP 4117 H 3333 (samaa tv) to track IS20 then maximize it's quality then input TP 3900 H 22222 (sony & co), play with the lnb skew and you'll hit green

If you are a total Newbie in this dept., you will most likely need the help of an experienced installer before you can receive ALL those channels in the setup above. But because you prefer a DIY method, you will have to buy an mpeg4 or HD receiver, befriend an installer, watch him do his thing, ask questions and read the threads on how to track a satellite on this rich forum and get practical. it's not as hard as people make it look.Your zeal, passion and enthusiasm for FTA will drive you to always experiment and vey soon you will be a guru.

Thanks bro.
I'm not a total Noob though, as in I am not strange to satellite stuff. I've worked briefly on VSAT before so I understand many of your tech terms. I'm into PLMN now.

For starter, could you please tell me the decoder to buy, what size of dish, LNB, and other stuffs.

Thanks,
#GodBlessNigeria

the "conical-scalar-ring" is indirectly going to hold the lnb,it's just the usual "lnb bracket" for small dishes will be used,checkout the setup at lemmymorgan.com;i haven't done mine yet,i was just discussing it with ugotuf,i keep the house posted when i'm done!
