@All

Please is anyone in lagos axis experiencing drop on the signal drop on w2 cband? Mine has been down for a week now.

On the instalation of nile with 2.4m,all u need is patient and the rigth tools. For a starter,use srt 4650 for the tracking. Tracking with 53x and 63x is misleading sometime. Example Nss 7 ku,if u get 90% on 52,by the time u use 63x you will get 97% and at 90% you may not hit nile. on 52 you need to hit at least 97% to get nile.  The dish must have been coupled by an expert. Not coupling dish well may lead to significant loss of signal. You have to also understand that the lnb that works for mr A may not work for mr. B. Some time you try more LNBs. In general you should be able to atleast 200 channels in lagos with 2.4m

I have the same issue.Sometimes two of the three tps will be working sometimes just one tp.At the moment it is the 3951 which is working.I think it has to do with the testing STN is still doing.

@All man u vrs fulham on sirius

@all live boxing on sirius on one of the feeds

@All  discovery channel, national geo,bbc prime e.t.c on intel 901 18deg west 3890h 26500 .i think these are being tested.u may reserve the tp for future.

@ALL BRAZIL VRS IRELAND on NT1 on W2A at 10 deg east

@Sammu,

@George-D, olofofo,adewest et al, kind regards. pls my 1.8 m dish motorised falls when moved to the west, what do i do to make it track upto 50deg west without falling off the jack, thanks

@twinskenny, congrats and happy married life

YOU MAY NEED TO GET HEAVY DUTY JACK(36INCHES).THE 24 INCH JACK TAKES U UP TO 37.5 DEG WEST.HOPE THIS HELPS

@All  i nailed the discovery world tp (3927v 8300) at w2A on my 1.8m solid dish .i believe the signal quality has improved,no special adjustment done.it is around 80% at the moment.Over 20 channels on w2A ,not bad.enjoy while it lasts.

@George-D

Those channels on W2A are DVB-S2 mpeg4 and I doubt if the 63x can get them.Try the 69x or any mpeg4 receiver.Good luck

@all

yep these channels have been up and running for about  a week now.reported some few pages back.very stable signal, up to 89%quality.they r mpeg4 btw.

@Paps 1

To add to what George_D said about pan being better for the out of footprint KU satellites u can go for the 3.1m pan dish if u have the means and the space .It goes for GHc 480.

@Paps 1,

1.8m? Maybe u shoul try 2.4m and above .Good luck

@Mide2008,
That bird is very funny.At 62% quality the discovery tp wouldn't turn green but the other tp for France 24 and the other nine channels was working fine with about 75% quality on my supermax lnb.

@ALL ,There are new channels on W2A at 10E.u can use 3939v 8799sr .I use 1.8m pan and 69x

@Salamander Sorry ,pls check ur gmail account.

@Salamander

check your gmail email address

@salamander i havent gotten the remote.the problem is the time 2 come around abossey okai.as soon as i can i will give u a call. I got this fuji hd lnb single(0.1db) from that shop.as soon as i try it i will give the house feeback.69x goes 4 GHC 150 in that shop

@All in Ghana , there is a new satellite equipment shop at North Kaneshie after St.Theresa's school coming from Dans bar.i even saw 3.1m pan dish.i think it is branch of the one at A and C Shopping Mall

@Sathob,

Very good work.keep it up.Is it possible for us to know the cost of some of these equipments?

@ALL i've just  seen an advert of Ghana/Egypt match on mbc3.i'll advise all those who can to stick to 2m for the Arsenal/Man u match to avoid any disappointment.Remember both matches start at 16.00Gmt

[pre][/pre]@ George_D and all , these tps gave me (1) NTV 11716 H 3141 (2) TPA1 / TPA2 11723 H 6282 (3) TBC1 11713 H 3141
Hopes it shows green on other decoders.

@what satellite,because if its w4/7 I've tried it and it did'nt work.

I use the V polarity for all the tps above because no signal on the H for me.I got the NTV to about 70% quality on my 69x but still freezing and no picture.I got the RTS1(showing alright at about 41%) but the 2STV on the same tp showed no picture.

@George_D,

Yes even though the lyngsat map shows the cband signal on W2A can be received with a less than 1.8m dish,it doesnot appear the signal is a strong/stable one.With my 1.8m pan motorised dish ,69x receiver the signal appears to be heading towards green at 50% quality,but it never hit green. I wonder if tweaking  the lnb will do the trick.It all goes to confirm that it's better to try it than just   to rely too much on the map given on lyngsat.

@Salamander,

I'm still waiting on info on the remote control for my superjack positioner.



@Paps1

Paps1:
@all Ghanaians ( sathob, spacevice,blackstar) can anyone show me where i can buy SRT 4910 and the price.pls

No SRT 4910 in Ghana now,that's according to STRONG TECHNOLOGIES agent in Ghana.I spoke to them a couple of weeks ago.

@BUTONEDAY, DEJSAM

That is simply amazing.That is a great source of reference not only in Naija but Africa as a whole.Africa is indeed proud of u.These are the challenges we Africans should be putting ourselves in.Not fighting each other.Many congrats

@Sathob
@Salamander
@Spacevice

Thanks for the effort.I will be waiting for further infos

@sathob,

@ALL

Anybody knows where I can get a remote control for superjack positioner(32 memories) in Accra?

@Gofitech

Please check your e-mail

@moderator,  @ALL   As much as i know it is for fun, but certain phrases like Nazi concentration camp,terrorist academy,taliban orientation camp e.t.c are very sensitive considering the current world situation .i dont want our thread to be an unnecessary target.just my humble opinion.

@George_D,
Can I suggest that you post the "How to use freegate and relevant info " on the g group to save yourself from repeated requests from members?

@ALL,
any one knows where SABC International is right now?Yes it used to be on pas7/10, not any more.

@All,
Any one realised that SABC News International is no more at 12722V on pas7/10?Where will it be ?I wonder

@badaru1, i need to discuss some issues with u so if u dont mind pls post ur number or email me on captainus2@gmail.com.thanks. @salamander,@ecowas4all @sathob @blakstar   et all  AFEHYIA PA

@Hopitinto @ ALL I think there is a problem on arabsat 30.5 cband.No channel is showing on that bird for some days now.I stand to be corrected.

@badaru1 can u please post the new sr for itv,eatv5 etc .the one i have is 8545(the same on lyngsat) but still showing no signal.blindscan does not bring any new sr.thanks
