Ur focal point is the problem.
For locally made dish, it's not straight forward like the foreign one.

Get someone who is familiar with the local dishes and u will learn a lot

Setting the focal of large locally made dishes is done on the floor with out any pole or base... Using ku band
Very long story...
Just get an installer
I have fix the problem by using my 4922a for tracking instead of my client Q23G which is slow in picking signal.

@Emmachile, the reason am still talking about strong is becos of those local channels, where will i get those channels free of charge, without having 2.4m dish?, i know that so many chinese decoders have superb picture quality, i have 2 60cm dish for 28e, 16e and 5e, and also 1.8m dish for sport 24, that just the reason i still like strong, am just giving them 2 weeks to release the software otherwise am going for vinsat XV9800 in two weeks time.
U can still go for 4950 series if u still need ur local channels, that's wat I use currently and its been awesome, strong decoders are d best no matter wat anyone says, be it living in the past or stone age.

@IfyKings, i bought srt 4950 2 years ago fairly used and no engineer has tempered with it, what amazed me was that it use to take up to 2 mins to switch disecq , when i put channels on multi tv it will take a while before there will be signal, i bought srt 4955 for my client for sport 24, the signal was flutuating but i plug my 4922A it will be normal, i returned it and collect D-sat DX9800 and it worked perfectly, so all these .bin strong decoders i dont trust them.

Receivers with stb (set top box) are presently going extinct. Manufacturers of satellite receivers are now using bin (binary which is interpreted as 0 and 1) software to manufacture satellite receiver because they believe that it is better than stb softwares. Bin performes more operations than stb. So you better start trusting the bin softwares but if I may ask, does your DX9800 receiver uses stb software?

No it uses .bin software, remember it is not a strong product, example you cant compare Nokia android operating system with Tecno android operating system cos they are not exaltly the same.

Insert your card into the decoder, then go online with your phone or computer to complete the card registration process, but ensure you are on one of the ftv channels like, WAP tv, AIT, channels etc., after completing the process, it will show you activation success at the bottom of your phone or computer, then wait for some minutes b4 the channel comes up, if it doesn't, alternate the channels within the same group of ftv.

BOSS thanks for your response and sorry for my late reply.
Am a newbie but been following the thread for a long time. Just decided to put FTA into real Practice. House Pardon some of my Questions..
According to previous posts. i read that 28e and 26e, 7e and 5e are nail-able on 60cm dish. is it possible on 75cm dish
can i track two satellites on my 1M dish?? WHat SATs are close to each other nail-able with 1 or 2 LNBs on my 1M dish.
Not much of a sports fan, but do watch sometimes... so my question is can i get some Low end sports channel for now with my setup, would be getting 1.8M soon...
from your post AFN is possible on this SATS 9°east, Amos 16°east, astra 28°east & Sirius 4 @ 5°east!!!!!!!!??

@lamtam@FTA@House Thanks very much and Anticipating your wonderful reply...

Thanks..
