DAMOCA: PLIZ PEOPLE IN THE HOUSE HOW CAN I UNLOCK TV3 for MUILT TV 28e
and i track 19e with a 90cm dish
also is it posible to track nilesat 7w with a 90cm dish pliz pipo help
Better contact TV3 Ghana directly 'cos I don't think any one in this forum will profer you a solution to that problem. Else, get DSTV kit and enjoy TV3 Ghana from within their set of channels. Another option would be to contact the Chinese or their subsidiaries somewhere out here in Africa for some dark boxes which can help you do the trick. Na so ee dey o!!

@pboy2buzy.

Now this your receiver is getting our my nerves. Which kind stronghead is it trying to form.

But if u're using a friends box and the problem is still dia. This is what u do;


1) take ur receiver to ur friends place to verify that ur receiver can receive those frequencies.

2) Then disconnect ur Diseqc and connect directly.

3) Now xchange ur lnb with another one and tell us ur result.

And by the way, were u receiving those tp's before and it just went off or u never were able to get it?


In my time, i've come across two receivers that were hitherto getting intelsat 20ku. Then during a thunder storm, something went wrong. And do whatever u want, it didn't get intelsat 20ku but comfortably picks every other bird.


My Regards.

Firstly....I v tried my decoder in my friends place,it worked perfectly well jst(pickin all sat on board)

Secondly I have no disecq on my system(I removed it as a result of d current experiment)

I have two lnbs,One dual and one single(both gives same result

Don't knw if d nature of my dish(mesh) contributes to this.

With dat mesh, u should be getting more than 70% on ur channels.

Get to work on ur lnb and see if u can get the signal up to 80-85%. And get back to us.


Also I can see u haven't worked on ur C-Band lnb. What's holding u. Get to work bro. This is the weekend.

@pboy2buzy. I want to suggest dat u should re track it and input those tips while tracking to be double sure.
Re: Free To Air Satellite Tv General Thread by adexdaprince(m): 4:35pm On Aug 25, 2013
for you that has problem on 36e.i will advice you to change your lnb and if the problem persist.go to another satellite and input 12272 h 11200 and search it directly because this thing has happened to me when i wanted to install 36e for freechannel.i just input 12245 h 27500 and it did not took me 5minutes when i hit green not knowing that this freq is also active on 26e but when i scanned the channe what i could see are mbc hd package and when i input 12272 h 27500 is not pumping green.so i now decided to got joy tv first so after goten it i input the frequency and moved the dish a down a little and shifted the dish a little to the left and i hitted green m
Re: Free To Air Satellite Tv General Thread by SULIEMAN3(m): 5:44pm On Aug 25, 2013
@pboy2buzy, i think u should skew ur lnb upwards to see if the signal increases a little(as from the picture you uploaded above, i can see the lnb is pointing towards 3'o clock position) most of ku band satellites are mostly receivable on bigger dish when lnb is facing upwards.
@Olenyi, your adequate response to the guy request are much enough to solve the problem. you have tried much for him, I think all the problem may resolve in realigning the dish.

@swordswifter
I like your post about installing external hard drive and this one. I have SRT4910 since 2009, it stopped working and only front flash light near power switch button is blinking. It is australian version of box. Can you please guide me how this can be fixed. I love this box, for the time being I am using an old Humax box, which has no MPEG 4 compatibility. Thanks in advance.

Regards,

@hbhatti

*What were the events that lead up to the receiver not working and the lights blinking?

*Was there/Do you have any power issues? Generator or mains around the time issue happened.

*Has the receiver been opened prior to it not working? If yes, what was done?

*Was there any software updates uploaded onto the receiver a day or two prior to it not working?

Answer these questions and i'd get back to you with a possible solution to your problem.

Is what you are getting and not this


http://www.lyngsat.com/Eutelsat-36A.html



Try to input the tp's 11940 H 27500 and 12275 H 11200.

Track with it by raising ur dish a little up and a little down to see if u will pick the signal.

Best of luck.

Re: Free To Air Satellite Tv General Thread by Dlee1(m): 7:13am On Aug 26, 2013
@ pboy2buzy,
you need to tweak your lnbf for you to pick that said transponder. If you have tweaked it well, that particular trasponder would have hit green even at 57%. I know you might not believe me but try it and you will come back here to testify your success over this problem. I remember back in the days when I hunted for TPA on that same satellite, my RDV on 12436 was hitting 73% and this trasponder (12245h) that is one of the t.p that has the strongest signal strength was hitting only 60-61%, did you see that? Hey bro,just go up and tweak that your lnbf, there is no pain in tweaking that your lnbf.

@Pboy2buzy.

U've really drawn out all the MEN with this ur problem. Dats good sha.


And i've come to realise that u are a bit reluctant to go out and work on ur dish. Is it that u just want a solution u can stay inside ur sitting/living room and solve?

Pls don't let this energy we've all expended looking for a solution for u go in vain.
