Thanks man, I have entered everything correctly including the serial with - sign still shows same invalid . I just tried again today .Is the stb Id same as smart card number . The id has something like 0x8.....bo.... anyways maybe I will reach their customer service.


For those who are on nigcomsat rescan your decoder all freeview channels are on the position as at today. I use 497s and my decoder software is updated .not sure if the channels are multi stream though!

We are using the same decoder please, when last or what month did you last update your decoder? I need to know this to know the month to know if I am on the latest update or need to update the October upgrade I saw. And by the way, where was it you upgrade your decoder last?

Thanks in advance!

My observation ;

The fact is, lifting a 60cm dish or less is nothing compares to a 90cm dish. I mean, mounting a 90cm dish on the wall is a whole lot of experience and requires more strength and experience than when you compare it with a 60cm.

Ok. I have been on this game for a while now, training and retraining with my 60cm dish and yes, I must say it's been fun as I learn and improve everyday mounting and unmounting my 6Ocm for training purpose, been on this for two months or more and I must say, I have improved quite a lot not until today. When I try to mount my first 90cm dish for the first time, I must say that the experience wasn't that different but it's a whole lot of one when you have to mount your (90cm)dish on a wall especially a wall that isn't that strong to bear the weight of a 90cm dish. Men, I sweat no be small for dat mata, ontop mountain 90 cm dish.


Well, well, and well after all the mountain, falling of dish under the sun and mountain and nailing it over and over again I was able to have it firm on the wall after almost an hour or more.


Why am I penning this down? Of course, for newbies and potential FTA enthusiasm, start small, at least with small fish, right on the soil, don't go up there yet. Discipline yourself and mount and unmount your 60cm dish and start with an iron poll except you are sure of yourself lest you get frustrated and hunting a bird become a mission impossible.

Let me also add that, as a result of my dedication and passion for FTA, I successful hunt Multitv, Belintersat, Nigcomsat, and even Intelsat with my 60cm dish. Yes, all with 60cm dish.

Sharing my testimony and thanking all the people ( there are many) that contributed to my success and inspired me on this thread--God bless you all. Digitman,et al I see you.

Happy Sunday. cool

Based on practicality, I know of 16/17e, 28e, 32.9,42.5 and 51.5. Being possible in one dish. But adding 7e to that is something I have not personally given a try. So saying it is possible or not is not in my place to affirm.

I will do that, tomorrow and upload it here tho I am on the big dish now.

Please, I need help urgently, I have hit the green on belintersat but I wouldn't find the sat on the latest h265 strong decoder now, the problem is, all efforts to type or add 51.5 belintersat on my strong decoder has proved abortive. I wonder why strong wouldn't add that position tho. Please, can you help me with how to go about adding a sat especially 51.5E on the latest strong decoder? I am struct now, I can't type it in, help!

I can't figure out how to edit or add my longitude or another satellite, help!

I also observe that my decoder hands a lot, what could be the cause of this?

First of all, it is not a must that until you see the exact sat name on the satellite list, before you will be able to get signal or whatever channel you are looking for.

The most important thing is to consider these two things. If you are searching for a ku band or a Cband.

For now all your tracking are in ku category. So all you need do is pick any satellite name listed that is on ku band.. Input your frequency manually on that sat or you just do a blind scan on the sat of your chosen and the frequency and channels will come up.

That said, you still choose to go the long journey of creating it yourself. Just click on the OK button on your remote, the keyboard function will pop up, edit whatever you so desire and click the yellow button to confirm and save.

Take note that you don't need to set the longitude if you are not running a motorized dish. So don't bother your head with all those details you will not even use anytime soon.


Please be informed that it will be a lot more better for you to send me an instant message on WhatsApp... When there is an emergency that needs an urgent reply.

Considering the fact that I will not always be here all the time. If you know what I mean.

Happy hunting

I didn't know all these are not necessary for if I had known I wouldn't have bothered at all cos of the stress I suffer trying to add and edit for a new sat was quite exhaustive.

I tried all this you said but all to no avail but I may try again. Secondly, what prompted me to make or try creating a new sat was because none of the sat position available on the listed sats is on 51.5 positions, in the decoder, I will try what you said now and see how it goes.

To much university book na im dey do you. Theories. Just press 'add tp ' on your remote and input the freq. The satelite names are just their for documentation purposes.


Then go ahead and download sat director on your phone if your phone has inbuilt compass.You don't need to buy any expensive tracker.

The app will give you the. ....skew..... Elevation.. Azimuth...

Then as if you are doing assignments on Gns 105 go to Google and learn the three terms above.
Re: Free To Air Satellite Tv General Thread by dlollyboi: 6:09am On Nov 16, 2020
From my observation, your dish installation matters to be able to successfully use sat director. When well installed(the hanger the dish is hung must be straight), then it's easier to use sat director, and an inexpensive sat finder(less than NGN2000) to confirm you in a sat position.

You can tweak your lnb or inclination a bit to improve your signal quality. That's what I've been using so far as a newbie and the success rate has been about 90%.

Remember that satfinder can only be powered by the receiver and you still have to input the to.
A good satfinder will get the job done even when there's power failure. You can even scan and veiw the channels to be sure of the date.
Sometimes, you need to install on a high roof. All you need is a short cable from your lnb to the satfinder. After installing, you can connect the cable and scan with the receiver

You just talk my mind. I just say make I lock up make e nor be like say I dey attack the guy way of tracking.

Imagine doing tracking with such a sat finder and nothing like backup generator. Nepa come take light.. That one na game over.

It's always good to get sat finder that helps you overcome all those inevitable challenges. Which makes the cost not to mean anything in the long run. What is what doing, is what doing well. A sat finder is one thing you must never cut cost because the benefit that comes from getting the one that does 95 percent of the job. Is not only just flexible but endless in possibilities.
