If you have little knowledge about tracking with small dish up to 1.8m motorising big dish shouldnt be headache.first make sure your pole is plume @ 90 degrees .GO to satellite that is close to your latitude here in nigeria the satellites that are close to us are rascom,sirus and eutelsat w3a.among the three satellites sirus 4.8e is easy to track.

start by declining your angle adjuster at the neck of your pole mount,while doing that move your dish up and down till you have signal pop up on your screen.Make sure you have full signal.
go to the next satellite that is next i.e eutelsat w3a.get good signal there too and move to hotbird ,from this bird move to eutelsat 16e to badr and astra 28 .it means you are almost done with eastern satellite move up to your west and track western satellite from sirus4.8e move to rascom to atlantic bird 3 to nilsat to ab7 then to nss7 you may move further to hispasat and intelsat 31.5 depending on what you are looking for.While doing all these you must know how to skew your lnb to gain maximum signal strength .also you must understand how the neck of your dish behave to signal while tighten it.Do everything gradually ,dont rush at the end you will enjoy it all.

Good luck

Obnelly, many thanks for the response again. This will happen soon.

Cheers

That's interesting, I thought dstv holds exclusive rights to both leagues expecially la liga
Not in MENA regions.we are receiving jsc sport here as off foot print bird.With the introduction of NWA Beam via 90cm dish i smell a dead rat here with our dstv claiming they own Africa excluding North Africa.Al jazeera is eyeing a big business in west africa region i suppose ,that is why NWA is there.Let us wait and see.Time shall tell.

Use 90cm to track 17e,28.2e and 36e together. you can read page 360 and 364 of this page to guide you through.
U need biger dish for badr.

use 11662 v 27500 with this you should have good signal better than 10993 v 27500.once you have the signal just scan your receiver for more tps.

skewing of lnb shouldnt be headache too,the mouth of your lnb where you attach your wire should be between eight o clock and nine o clock .Your full signal lies within that slot.

Note my explanation is correct when your dish is facing east ,once you do that just move your dish to west and track.But if you wanna track everything from west your skewing should be between three o clock and five o clock.

Good luck
Re: Free To Air Satellite Tv General Thread by obnelly: 2:46pm On Jul 07, 2013
kwame pls give me the latitude and longitude of your location with that i should be able to give you correct skew for your location.The skew i gave you is for my location.Sorry about that.

What was/is ur signal %. Make it to get to 80-90%. And remember to first track multi tv/joy tv with 12.523 v 19531 first. Skew the lnb to Optimize the signal. Then input 11881 v 27500 and standing at the back of the dish, raise it up and ti the right a bit. Then skew ur lnb to optimize ur signal. Tighten and blindscan.

Akinige,sorry i havent tried 90cm on that bird but base on 3m you should have good signal on jsc to have mbc pop up on 1m dish.May be you will need to work more on your signal strength and i hope you are using mpeg4/HD receiver.

@Sulieman3.

Just incase u get stuck half way, just factory reset the decoder.grin

And I think one needs to use it on a dish facing intelsat 7/10.

Am a bit sceptical but one can never tell.

Eagerly awaiting ur feedback.

My warm regards.
