Firstly I must commend your selfless support on this forum@ Digitman2 and a host of others.



I did the bolded... But i didn't get the "green light" though i didn't blind scan cos its a strong decoder. It takes it ages to do a full blind scan so I simply reverted to my previous sat NigcomSat. Maybe I have to make out time and do the needful. Thanks

Sorry bro.. It was a typo error. I meant to type 11090 V 30000

It has a good line of sight with no observable obstacles to the satellite

Then, checklist all the tips I gave above. There is always room for signal improvement.

Less I forget. Is it the same signal percentage you get on your tracker that you still get on your decoder inside?

Because on some occasions, I have noticed signal drop due to diseqc switch, wire distance / joining. But that can only apply to you if there is a drastic drop in signal. when you compare the two signal between that of the tracker and the decoder inside.

Yes, but when I checked the channel lists under the satellite name I see none of the channels you listed above. Sorry for my lazy way of passing my message, that's what I meant so was wondering if there are any other 51 .5E.

My question is, where do you get the channel list as I wouldn't want to bombard you or this thread with the screenshots of the lists of channels I found on lyngsat when I checked the sat position you mentioned above.
And lastly, what are the dish sizes tracks this bird?

Thanks for your selfless supports on this thread.

NB; I am a newbie.

First of all, using lyngsat to confirm the channels update given here, is not really a wise decision. Because that website is not always up to date or quick to update their channel list. Most info you see there are sometimes very old or outdated.

Secondly the info given here is not based on what any website is saying but rather based on real live/ personal experience. So when you hear us talking about latest development, it's based on the fact that we have, tracked, scanned, watched and confirmed. Before we come here to say anything of that sort.

Thirdly, many of us have dishes pointed at major sat positions or some are into daily installation. So most times do a periodic blind scanning.

Fourthly, when you hear more than one person repeating or hammering on new channels update / sat position. You don't need to rush to any website to go and check that info. Because there is a huge difference between office work and field work. The website is like an office work. But forums like this, is the real field work that contains people who carry out the physical practicals needed to give an authentic info and solutions in real time.

Finally on the issue of dish size.. The signal is strong enough to be tracked by a 60cm dish or above depending on which is at your disposal

totit:
Please! I am seeing one here but I am not sure if it's the same channels, satellite name. ?

Belintersat 1 at 51.5°E

Tracking frequency 11090 V 30000

tchijioke:
Thanks
I did the tracking with this tp 11050 H 30000 but
got only mytv channels. What could possibly be the issue.

There is no issue.. You have two option. You can either blind scan or manually input the frequency. 11090 V 30000

totit:
Please! I am seeing one here but I am not sure if it's the same channels, satellite name. ?

Please elaborate on what you're seeing

HIGHESTPOPORI:
The channels are the good.

Is this a question or a statement?

Good evening bro. Its a single lnb setup. It freezes occasionally making an annoying sound

Certain measures to checklist when it comes to boosting your sat signal.

Check for line of sight ( be sure there is no obstruction in front of your dish)

Make sure your dish is well aligned

Do some lnb tweaking

Make sure your dish is not bend

Try a different lnb

MrSuama:
inshaAllah, am adding this to my nigcomsat setup tomorrow.

It will surely give more variety to your viewing pleasure

tchijioke:
I assume this sat is on the position with the new mytv, hope am right.

You are absolutely right

waleayeni1:
Good evening bro. Its a single lnb setup. It freezes occasionally making an annoying sound

That signal is not cool for a single lnb setup. At least you're suppose to be getting close to 70% . Are you sure something is not blocking the front of your dish?

tchijioke:

waleayeni1:
For those that aren't presently hooked to this satellite, una dey miss o. Premium content free of charge. The only problem is that mine hangs a little bit even though I have 54 % signal quality. Tried everything to up the signal but no luck

I am curious.. Please elaborate on the word "everything" ? Secondly is the dish a multi lnb installation? If yes, which sat is your primary lnb?

@Goaldynboy.. For fact that 3 degree west channels have move. You can now switch mbc to become your primary lnb.. Using the old lnb, you were using for the 3 degree west. Forget any attachments for now. Just use the old lnb at the centre for tracking mbc first

@ Goaldynboy been trying to respond to you but you know what always happen. Guess we have to figure out another way to communicate

waleayeni1:
My guy abeg what size of dish are you using

How far have you gone with your nigcomsat ?
