Please guys what size of dish would be able to track BBC, France 24 and DW on Nilesat @ 7°0 West??
Location is Portharcout, Nigeria

I know someone that was using a 3m dish but it froze sometimes, not all TPs were picked

harizonal123:

Why not go for this combo: 28e as primary, 16e below, 32e immediately above 28e and 42.5e above 32e

It's advisable you make Nigcomsat primary...attaching it will result in low signal coupled with the raining season, small rain e don off

Ofemmanu1:

I'ma Sammy fan but ain't the best.
When you talk about processors, Samsung Snapdragon Lagged behind Apple"s Bionic machines.
In Camera aspect too, there are heavyweight out there. eg Oppo, Redmi, OnePlus, iPhone etc
Samsung shot emself in the foot with space zoom 108mp camera on S20 ultra.
That camera is just a gimmick.

The only phone with a better camera than the S20 ultra is the Huawei P40.

People just dey sleep on Huawei...

Hoodbilonia:
Outside samsung s series,huawei,iphone x,xs max,11 pro. The rest na nonsense

Baba try this new Samsung A series...I mean from A50-A90 5G

You go confam

visatex:


obviously you are stuck on this one. Pls try other things. It helps to have a big heart when it comes to phones. I used to be in that category till I moved around a little. It's refreshing.

Another alternative is Huawei....that new P40 na die but Trump just dey whine dem

post=88638745:
Lovely phone.

But still on still : SAMSUNG remains the KING OF PHONES!


You got yourself one of the best phone in the world right now.
Top 10!
Some of us @[color=#006600][/color] are rocking the Samsung Galaxy s20 presently.
As cool or more cool than the latest iPhone!


True that!

Rocking my A50 since July last year

When I saw Tecno announce 5hat their Camon 15 with 95k price laugh no gree me.

That amount can get you a Samsung that's 2 times better in every aspect.

My advice guys,just save money and buy an average Samsung like mine and you'll never touch infinix and Tecno again

Staro:


And Buhari's stupid foolish ZOMBIES do not still realise the dangerous precedence their useless nepotistic president
is sowing for Nigeria.

Because you are president, you corner the entire National budget to your region ... what else
is the definition of Abuse of Office ? Where is federal character ?

Nigerians in Lagos and Abuja are crying of biting hunger but Zamfara State where the minister, Sadiya Farouq comes from
is the second highest beneficiary even though the state is yet to record a single confirmed case of COVID 19.

See ehn, the entire Southern Nigeria are a bunch of fools because I can't imagine the deft silence among
southern leaders
.

When Wike spoke up shey he was called names....see ehn,south south Governors no get mind

gifteddion:
Op its obvious you are new in Rivers State for your information Rotimi Amaechi build that ada George it is well known fact stop misleading people when did Wike build the road?

I was weak when he said Wike built that road....90% of the roads were built by Ameachi and he's loved by the people, the only sin he committed was joining APC

SinisterX well done....I read all your arguments and counter arguments.

However I got to stumble on this thread late.

You should've asked him first if he was/is a science student,that would have really made things so easier for you.

He present his arguments well,credit to him but he has some lapses in his points that I can't even quote them all.
All the same the convo was a good read.

One of the top 10 most difficult things in existence is trying to convince flat earthers...it would be easier for satan to make heaven than convincing them.

Well done once again

Zoharariel:
To be honest - I am highly disappointed in Iran for announcing the intended retaliatory strikes to Iraq (who immediately informed Amerika) ahead of time.

Jack Khoury - An Israeli Journalist revealed on his Twitter yesterday that "224 Amerikan soldiers, were wounded during the Iranian missile attack, and were immediately transferred to Tel Aviv by an Amerikan plane and admitted to the hospital".

Jack Khoury’s Twitter account was suspended a few minutes after posting this tweet.

https://mobile.twitter.com/khjacki_en?lang=en

I should also bring to your notice that a lot of disinformation are currently being peddled by the Empire's propaganda outlets in order to sway public opinions.

For example, The Guardian has reported that the Jack Khoury's twitter account was suspended because it was spreading & promoting false claims - but the BASTARD NEWSPAPER FORGOT TO TELL US THE REAL TWITTER HANDLE OF JACK KHOURY WHICH IS NOT PEDDLING FALSE CLAIMS.

https://www.google.com/amp/s/amp.theguardian.com/world/2020/jan/08/false-claims-spread-online-after-iran-missile-attack-on-iraqi-airbase

We're already used to the lies of Amerika & Israel. The Amerikans suffered heavy shellacking from the Iranian retaliatory strikes but they covered it up inorder to save face.

How many times have we witnessed this kinda scenario?

During the NATO bombing of Yugoslavia in 1999, Serbia shot down an Amerikan B2-Spirit Bomber (Spirit of Missouri - which ofcourse has been replaced now) & F117 Nighthawk with the Russian S-125 Neva/Pechora SAM and Amerika denied it never happened, only for the bastards to send NATO's military delegation to Serbia 2 years later, sharing questionnaires and asking stupid questions, not only about the downing of the F-117, but also about the B2-Spirit.

In 2011, an Amerikan RQ-170 Sentinel drone was captured in flight by Iran and the Amerikan bastards - as usual quickly denied it, until pictures of the wreckage began to surface on the internet.

I could go on & on. Amerika has peddled too many lies to be taken seriously on anything she says.

I am neither an Amerikan robotic zombie who believes & gobbles carefully-crafted propaganda disseminated by their useless MSM, neither am I a Nigerian secessionist & religious bigot trying hard to showing blind solidarity to Trump & Satan-Yahoo, hoping to secure their support in balkanizing Nigeria & granting them their utopian Country.

The Amerikan Senators are coming out one after the other to deny Trump LIES & CLAIMS that Qassem Soleimani was planning an impending strikes on the Amerikans while our vacuous Nigerians whose emotions & religious bigotry have taking the better part of them - thereby pushing them to comment (inorder to garner useless LIKES on social media) on Issues they know absolutely nothing about except what they're fed on CNN & other MSM channels.

The same Qassem Soleimani who was praised by CNN some years ago for fighting & decimating ISIS - is now a Terrorist simply because Amerika says so?

https://mobile.twitter.com/sahouraxo/status/1214791376459706368?s=09

Even with the rumoured casuality on the Amerikan side, the Iranian retaliatory strikes are not sufficient to deter these Zionist Murdering Bastards from ever crossing the redline again.

In the 60s, the United Snakes had a programme to produce a single Bomb so powerful that just one could destroy the whole of the USSR.

Mother Russia on the other hand went 10 steps further. They planned to produce a single Bomb so powerful it would destroy the whole planet when detonated.

The idea was to put this thing on a big cargo ship and sail it up & down her coast.

If Russia was destroyed in a surprise attack, the sailors on board would light the blue touch paper, and we would all kiss the world goodbye. Funny right?

Fortunately saner counsels prevailed and none of these monstrosities saw the light of day.

If Amerika dares nuke Iran, trust me, scores of Countries would begin to chase & buy nukes even if they can't produce it.

The is the reason Iran HAS TO respond, or as is pointed out, Bashar Al-Assad, Hassan Nasrallah and the Iranian Supreme Leader are next on the Ziocon hit list.

A deterrent price has to be extracted.

There has to be a price tag on these murders, or else they will be daily events.

The Zionists don’t bomb Lebanon because they know there will be brutal retaliation.

They bomb Syria because they have been able to get away with it. Nothing less would be acceptable to the millions on the streets of Tehran.

This is not fanciful. Iraq already wants the bastard Amerikan troops out of their country, leading to another Trump Twitter tantrum.

Once they are gone from Iraq, those in Syria will follow. Iran could respond by declaring a security zone in the Straits of Hormuz.

Any Amerikan ship would be assumed to be hostile and destroyed without warning.

Just Amerikan ships. Any others, and the tanker traffic, could proceed unmolested.

Amerikan warships in the Gulf can rust in port in Bahrain, till their presence becomes irrelevant.

This would impose a real cost on the Amerikan without firing a shot or taking a single life – unless Amerikan ships try to force the Straits, like ducks in a shooting gallery.

I also expect Iran to quickly export the "Magrav Technology" to all her allies (Resistance Axis) and the war-gaming of all Amerikan Aircrafts & Vessels (Military & Civilian) should commence forthwith - while the S-400Triumf and other components like the BUK, Pantsir & Tor-2 are immediately bought & delivered to Tehran from Russia.

The United Snakes of Amerika would largely become irrelevant, and sidelined - and Countries would make their own security arrangements without any Amerikan involvement.

Unfortunately,not many know much about these,they'll only come here and rant.
Already Russia has delivered the S-400 to Iraq to protect its airspace which I believe will find it's way to Iran.
Like you rightly said,USA cannot dare nuke Iran,it will get very messy.
Remember America only thrive on war?see the mess they made in the ME over the past 20-25years

And they'll still goto hell fire again?

Actually, Android is only just getting a system wide dark mode with Android 10. And that just got released on September 3rd.

I have dark mode on my Samsung Galaxy A50. I got it last month. Get your facts right

Spy360:

Impressive. But can't their engineers reveal the sat feed? Even to close pals

Seems you guys still don't really understand how this stuff works.
Data is encrypted [primary] before been feed through to the control at SA or wherever it is,which is furthermore decrypted and then encrypted [secondary] again.It is this secondary encryption provided by several CAS/CAM companies like Viacess,Nagravision and all the rest that our receivers "understand".
At their "raw" state,even if you know the satellites, our receivers wouldn't be able to pick them since they're not compatible.
All these encryption is done to ensure maximum security

davodyguy:

I just don't want to get into frivolous argument.

After reading his post, I just gave up on his misinformation and then took my time to study how EPL distribute their content world wide to Paytv operators who then provide the contents to us at home.

There is no way any Paytv would operate without getting Signal from Satellite feed. What some of the broadcast organization does is to have a satellite which them may not disclose to anyone save the Paytvs they are sending signals to. Hence, this contents are available 24/7 which can then be redistributed.

DSTV is head quartered in South Africa. All the EPL contents you watch on Super 1 to 10 is sent to them through dedicated channels on the satellite/feed. DSTV doesn't have cameras or OB vans in England.

I checked https://www.arqiva.com/case-studies/arqiva-and-plp-deliver-premier-league-football-to-the-world/

I'll extract the key parts in quote below


Fact 1, DSTV is been fed through Satellite, likewise Startimes. They don't have cameras in all 20 Stadia in England, neither does Startimes have cameras in all 18 Stadia in the Bundesliga



Fact number 2, they have been doing this since 2007


Number IMG and PLP owns the production including cameras etc


This part nailed his argument to the grave.

EPL is delivered through Feed.

End of discussion
There are two major Paytv operators in Nigeria at the Moment.

DSTV from SA and
Startimes from China

DSTV owns the right for EPL, LaLiga, Serie A and UCL. They have an alliance with the content owners, who provides a link to DSTV to get all contents, which DSTV then encodes and you'll need their decoder to decode the contents. These contents are not provided through web. No way, cos it would be very expensive streaming such heavy HD contents. Hence, they're distributed through Satellite feeds, which is cheaper and can be encrypted using some of the latest technologies available.

You are not getting my point. The "feed" I refer to isn't the one you're talking about.
For any two or more ways communication, data must be sent and received across these paths and hence it's a feed.
The feed we all hunt for isn't the same feed which these contents are "originally" transmitted on.
There are cameras across the several stadia to record each event/game; This doesn't mean DSTV have cameras there, the camera provides every "content distributor" with these feeds before they're been broadcasted to us,that's were IMG and all the rest comes to play.
Sorry I was way to ambiguous with regards to the term "feed"

davodyguy:

Thanks for stopping by

I just don't want to argue with these guys, cause it's like beating a dead horse to move.

Nigerians love EPL due to the effect of Kanu, JJ Okocha, Obafemi Martins etc that played in England.

When Kanu and George Finidi were in Ajax and won the UCL in 1995, many Nigerians started supporting Ajax and in those days Rashidi Yekini played for Victoria Setubal, Mutiu Adepoju was in Spain and Okocha played in Eintracht Frankfurt. Many Nigerians were limited to Football Made in Germany between 1993 to 1998 when NTA gets their feed from Transtel of Germany. DSTV was not even existing or popular at all. We were watching ABG with those very big dishes in the 90s, and limited to Cable Tel from Disc Engineering receiving signal from Yagi antenna.

All of a sudden, TV Africa came in 1997 and started broadcasting EPL, later in 1998 DSTV gained ground with EPL. By then JJ Okocha had moved to England, Kanu also left Inter Milan for Arsenal, leading to these crazy love for EPL.

Nigerians think they are the only ones in the world and when they love something fanatically, it is the same elsewhere.

DSTV gets EPL through feeds, as the contents they show are not theirs. The satellite they use, no one knows.
DSTV gets La Liga also through SKY Sports feed. The satellite they use, no one knows.
DSTV gets Serie A through feed as well. The satellite they use, no one knows.

That Startimes is getting bundesliga through feed is nothing new. Startimes is from China and they broadcast Bundesliga to South Africa, West Africa and East Africa. The Bundesliga rights provider need to supply Startimes a feed or feed channels close to the region they are broadcasting from, which is why 8 degrees west was selected as it is within reach for Startimes

I just don't want to engage in Frivolous argument cos many people view things from their perspective and then generalize

DSTV is based in South Africa and not in England, hence all EPL contents are delivered to them through a feed. The feed is coded cos of TV rights and the way England football is

First of all,let me clear the air.
I'M PROMOTING DSTV or neither are my a DSTV agent

I can't verify your claims for others but for that of EPL,DSTV doesn't broadcast it using a FEED.
Before these events grace our screens,it must pass through a "stream" or several streams.
For everywhere in the world where the EPL is broadcasted in English, there's a dedicated channel that markets these "contents" including all of its programs [Football today,fanzone,preview and review,netbusters and all the rest)
During live matches,the same camera that records these events live in the stadium are the same views you see on your TV as long as you're elsewhere [Not in the UK] excluding Sky and BT. Commentary and Studio analysis MAY vary but content is the same — of course there are renderings made to enhance picture and audio,noise cancellation and all that which is done by the technical team of the content holder;data is transmitted and encrypted at the same time. Do you know why that funny looking alphabet combination appears on your screen while a live match is on? It's different for several providers but appears at the same time,this keys vary too.
If you have an orange tree and supply oranges to several people, you must not tell them what to do with it,one can directly resell in the market while the other makes juice with it.
You should check again what a FEED means.
Again,I'm not a DSTV agent!!!

In as much as Nigerians are jus being petty, d fact dat he is a gospel artiste means dat his fans hold him in a particular regard and see him as a Christian model becos of d message in his songs.. But if Pastor Chris perms his hair and doesn't get much backlash, dyeing hair blonde shldnt

I guess this is one of the reasons why Lecrae cancelled his tour in Nigeria. Gospel rap will never have a reception in Nigeria. Some people now think dying your hair is a sin

Ceramic was used as heat shield again, seems NASA forget too soon, The Challenger, upon investigation also had heat shield problems apart from event-changing "O-ring".The temperatures were far less than what this prob is going to take on. No matter how thick the shield is, as long as it's ceramic, it will crack and fall off. Design heat shield is still a challenge,NASA still doesn't admit this

Tolu95:
I need gospel rap songs please

Not sure if Nigeria even have gospel rappers, so I switched to the US Gospel rappers. Lecrae and the entire 116 clique, Bryann Trejo too. Check out there lecrae tracks : Background (Feat. Andy Mineo), Boasting (Feat. Anthony Evans) Messengers (Feat. For King and country), Broken (feat. Kari Job), Don't waste your life, Tell the world (Feat. Mali Muzik)...Lecrae is the best gospel rapper out there!!!

Infinix really did great here.

My observation

Pros

- Really Nice design ✅
- Dual Camera ✅
- 4000mah ✅

Cons

- Old/Outdated Snapdragon Chipset.
- Quad-core 1.4GHz on Hot 4, 5 and now 6 ?
- Probably no fast Charge

Xioami Redmi 5 is way better and even costs less.

What pisses me off the more is the cheap plastic they use... The design for hot S is better than this mediocre plastic that'll break and scratch easily.I'm really disappointed in the body design material

You have a point there.

As for me, the main reason why I am yet to marry is because I haven't seen or found a girl so interesting enough.

Most girls I know are so intellectually below me. My above average IQ is the problem here...

Some friends advised me to just accept the girl and then begin to train her.

And I'm like... na me be her mama and papa wey suppose train her since tay tay...?

Maybe na baby mama me I go do finally finally because as for me, living in a house with someone who cannot challenge you intellectually all in the name of marriage is the shortest cut to suicide.

Uncle Albert Einstein, you've shown yourself, I hope your high IQ can help this country overcome its woes! As your moniker implies ;you really have a cold feet!

martyns303:
always open to improvement, more so, we don't know if the inner part is coated with insulating materials. about the distance between the "flake" and pot, considering the cooker doesn't have a means of regulating the heat, the distance is not a bad idea, to prevent excess heat (excess heat burns food from the bottom of pot early before proper cooking). the distance can also prevent excess smoke.

even if you are cooking with a gas cooker, heat will be lost to the environment, as long as the useful % is significantly more than the % of heat lost. then the system is OK.

Oga that "cooker" is just too inefficient. The losses is way too much. The design alone highlights the inefficiency that even an armchair engineer could tell.Thermodynamics tells us no system is 100% efficient but most systems efficiency exceed 90%.This "cooker's" inefficiency is way below that.
