@blexxomak, u dont need to conclude yet assiast 5c, cos i understand that dish will be facing downward because it is off horizon, but we can use inverted dish to track, so that signal that will be falling will be a reverse, up becomes down and down becomes up, i will post the picture of inverted dish soon, have ever installed mytv using inverted method, then u will see that the dish will be facing up instead of down
hey graphicicon i thought sometimes ago u said u have goodnews for those using amos5 concerning beinsport,so what now hapened grin

Re: Free To Air Satellite Tv General Thread by blexxonmak(m): 7:21am On Dec 01, 2014
@agkilis.What you have failed to understand is that the EIRP coverage of a satellite determines the size of receiving dishes required. The higher the EIRP, the smaller the antenna needed. For example, for a standard DVB-S digital video broadcast, an EIRP of 50 dBW would be sufficient to allow the use of 100 cm receiving antennas.If the EIRP is 3 dB less, or 47 dBW, the antenna diameter will need to increase by about 50%, to 1.5 meters.
That is to say,EIRP α (1/SIZE OF DISH)

This is the tracking frequency! for eutelsat@21.6east fr/sr(11610H6200), a 75cm dish with a dvbs receiver will lock this TP, though don't expect any channel on this tp!for the rest of the channel on this sat! use bigger satellite dish 2.4-3m!while the MBC channels on this sat is MBC pro sports! on multi stream broadcast!the sat has nothing much to offer!

@blexxonmak! I think you are a bit higher on Eirp values versus dish size! that is an Eirp value of 50dBW is just 60cm dish! while a 47dBW will be equal to 75m dish! while a decrease in (-)minus 3dBW is equal to an increase of 15cm dish at coverage zone!
Based on what you said, if Eirp is 3dBW less or 47dBW,the antenna diameter will need to increase by about 50dBW,the antenna diameter will need to increase by about 50% to 1.5meters!based on eirp vaue, this is not correct, for example nilesat 201 eirp is 50.1dBW at the edge about 47dBW which is equal to 75cm dish!if 47dBW or 3dBw less will result in increase of 50% to 1.5m dish like you said! that means ..fringe coverage in Nigeria will result in nothing less than 3m dish to track nilesat 7west in Nigeria!that means I will need 4.5m dish for 7west @ my location!lol

cheers!

How did you managed to track europe C beam of 7east!The 7east europe C beam is ka band!while muvi TV is also on Europe c band beam!is same to say that you tracked 7east europe C beam with ka lnb! possibly you may have got muvi tv Ku band frequency!or do you have ka lnb..
