You need to get the services of an installer.....

If you don't know about lnb's, it will be difficult for you to understand how to diseq the properly skewed lnb's aligned to the bird you want to nail.

i learnt everything here on this very thread. So imposibility is not really it. Let him read up and then do some practice then ask questions, look at some uploaded pics, read up some more with more and more practical time. The watchword is endurance and dedication-he will overcome it except it is not his calling to 'Do It Himself'.

I learnt everything here. Combining lnbs, tracking AFN on 90cm, cctv5 when it reigned, I'm not even gonna mention 45e, 42e, 28e, 26e, 16e, 9e, 7e, 4.9e, 3w and 8w. All these on my dishes that ranges from 60m to 1m. I will start trying cband when I eventually get a bigger dish. I bought a Satfinder which most acclaimed installers don't even have. Anybody can learn here if they are smart enough. Mind you, you were once my installer oh.

Any problem you encounter, let's know.

Re: Free To Air Satellite Tv General Thread by sholey4love: 7:56pm On Aug 03, 2019
House, please I need you assistance on how I can track tstv on Nigcomsat. I already tracked Nigcomsat using satalite meter but tstv is giving problem. I have tried all means but all to no avail. I will like if you can send me a picture of yours and frequency and lnb position. Here is the one I did in in the picture below.
Nigcomsat at the bottom while tstv at the top but not working.
Thanks

TSTV has been off all day. Just back now.
Re: Free To Air Satellite Tv General Thread by Dlee1(m): 9:13pm On Aug 03, 2019
Hello sholey4love,
Just place the lnbf you are using to track TSTv at that position where I circled with red on the image below. The signal will surely pop up and if it do then adjust the lnbf to the position where you are receiving the maximum signal. Happy tracking and best of luck.


Note: This is achievable if TSTv is on air.

Thank you Sir, I'm curremtly using single lnb on satellite Astra 3A/3b (23.5E) on a dstv dish , am getting few channels ( approx 30), No any indian movie channel, No Channels TV or AIT, no foreign news channels like alzajeera, France. 24 nor any good Sport channels.. It's Kinda boring now


my desire is to get some of those channels mentioned above and other exciting channels to enjoy FTA to the fullest . I will buy additional lnbs as suggested. I'm Cheered

Ur lnb skew should b the same with the nigcomsat i.e 9.o clock or so,
And that Ur lnb holder might not allow u to hit it right since it can't allow u to turn the lnb upwards or downwards axis

These are three different satellite u need three lnbs, just like the one in Ur dstv dish they are all ku lnb,
U can call an installer in ur locality if u can't track them
But if u insist on doing it urself,
U can get the materials and flip the page backwards on this thread, ,will see pics and instructions , and with current tps ,symbol rates etc, wear face cap because of sun or when u climb grin
