Abeg can someone help me out with a 2-in-1 Eutelsat 16e and Astra 2F 28.2e?

I have the Discovery 2 in 1 lnb holder and have tried making 28.2e the one above and 16e primary.

To be able to get Multi TV I had to put the one above at about 45deg angle to the left of the lower one.

Multi TV shows but can't get 16e.

If you have a photo, even better.

TIA.
The orange twin lnb is 16° while the other one is 28°.
the other dish from the left is 68°

REVIEW OF SRT 4930 HD SATELLITE RECEIVER

The Strong SRT 4930 HD series first appeared on
the market way back in 2010 and I bought my first
standard version of this receiver in January 2011.
To me it was a big improvement over my only
other Strong HD stb (at the time) namely SRT
4900.
First the tuner was more sensitive especially after
new SW patches started coming out. Over a period
of time I acquired other versions of SRT 4930
including the only LINUX stb which is by far the
most expensive and also most versatile model
from Strong (SRT 4930L). There are three versions
of SRT 4930 that I know of and that I have ever
owned. There is the old standard model SRT 4930
HD with just basic functions and ports. Then there
is the SRT 4930 HD with LAN port that could
handle limited internet functions like YouTube,
hardstations, and weather. Then there is the SRT
4930L HD with its LINUX OS, 2 USB ports and 2
card readers.
SRT 4930L is far far ahead of SRT 4922. It is very
fast in all espects and it is unfare even comparing
the two stbs.
How can you compare a Ferrari with a Corolla?
If you have ever used a Linux box like Dreambox,
then you will understand what I mean.
Its WI-FI specs include capability to handle
Facebook, Gmail, Twitter, Youtube, Picasa photo,
Weather, Maps, Internet radio, RSS, Google mail,
Hotmail, Webtv, Hardcore, and many many more.
You just plug in your modem for internet and it
turns your TV into a Smart TV with internet and
smart phone connectivity.
Last weekend I pulled out my old SRT 4930 HD
(the std original basic model) from my store,
dusted it and upgraded it with the latest SW patch
from Crosat. I was surprised when it opened Dgt
channels on 7E, plus it flawlessly opened all PV
channels on IS20 after entering the keys. Its media
player is far superior to the one in SRT 4922 series
with nice and smooth slow motion replay plus
smooth fast forwarding, unlike the jerkiness/
glitchness when playing in the same mode on SRT
4922.
I was preparing it for a relative upcountry but I
have now changed my mind and decided to keep it
for myself despite having SRT 4930L (Linux) and
many others. The upcountry relative will now get
another new stb instead.
That is what ASAS does to you.
This model was popular especially in West Africa
and some parts of southern Africa like Zambia,
Zimbabwe etc.
I doubt if it is still in production although you may
still find a new one as a leftover in some shops.
So guys if you come accross SRT 4930 being sold
even as second hand, just buy and you will not
regret.
It can also use remotes from SRT 4900/4910, and
SRT 4922 series.

@Dlee1, am not talking of good features, am talking of handling any issues that got to do with satelite signal, video decoding, audio decoding and other problems that arise when decoding transponder video or audio, that many decoders fails to handle, "I STIIL SAY 4922A IS THE BEST IN OVERCOMMING SATELLITE PROBLEMS"

Hehehe Graphicicon,
remember that SRT 4930L is a Linux receiver. You shouldn't compare ordinary receiver with Linux receiver. I have long forgotten about that SRT 4930L.

I dont agree cos to this cos i jx finished with that comparison and the srt4922/a is no nearer to the srt 4930L when it come to channel decoding, picture and sound quality and and a whole lot. i hv both machines and they are far apart from comparison. The 4930L is very expensive, as twice as the price of the 4922 and the patronage in the market was low and even very scares in the Sat Market now. The 4930L is the boss

Na wa for you oo, with that wall the whole gurus in nairaland cannot track IS20C, either increase the dish height or take the dish about 30 feet backwards if you have the space.

That's strange. I receive IS20 with 78% on 1.83p on SRT4922. My dish is positioned similarly, in fact, it's almost right against the wall with the lower 1/3 facing the wall directly. Didn't stop me though my dish is a bit bigger at 2.4m.

I think patience might be the key. Else, the blockage might be all you're experiencing. By the way, if your dish isn't motorised, your ... (azimuth, I believe) might be off.

The orange twin lnb is 16° while the other one is 28°.
the other dish from the left is my tv

Thanks for the pic.

So the 28e is to the left of the 16e correct? What is the distace between the two lnbs?

How is it that your MYTV dish is pointed almost at 90deg to the 16e and 28e dish?

I don't quite get that (just wondering). Isn't MYTV on 16e?
