Been a while from this informative page���
Good news for now fridge reception is improving. On 9E managed to pull one transponder of the Italian beam 12256V 14305 with some Greece beams warming up on 150cm offset with inverto black lnb��

Nyc one bro....what's your setup on 42°E? Thnx

Saipro:


Invacom sells a good range of LNBs with circular polarization. The only one I own (QPH-031) works lke a charm. I think it's now outdated as the company lists it as a "discontinued" product.

Yeah invacom has good lnbs on offset dishes...their prime focus lnb feed is outperformed by the stargold Fuji...at my location 36°E its better to go for Asia Sat 5&7 on C band with a 3M reflector to get the star package or Ku band for dish TV...will report on my findings soon

deepbluesky:


Thanks a lot mate. I expected that Russian Beams were not receivable with reasonable dish sizes anywhere in Africa except of parts of Egypt or Libya. I asked here on purpose because there is a DXer in NW Italy (superdish66) with 4.2m DH (http://www.digital-forum.it/showthread.php?146560-Ricezione-Canali-Russi-36-Est/page8) receiving all African Beam frequencies and these two which do not lock. So if here nobody can get them this means for sure that they are from 36B or 36C Russian Beam.

Thanks once again.
Best regards from Stuttgart.

Thts an interesting find. The sub Saharan beam of 36B is gotten all the way in UK with a 2.4M offset for guys to receive the early kickoff of EPL because they don't receive it on Sky Sports..for the Eurasian beam you need a Ku circular lnb to nab it...waiting for results

Irib Varzesh HD Back on YahSat.1A @52.5E

Key 11 11 11 33 11 11 11 33

Dnt knw about tv3

Actually its TV Varzish

Its on Eastern beam getting it with a 150cm offset here in east Africa Kenya. It is running test signal in full HD promising coverage of sports events including EPL, champions league & Europa league....

deepbluesky:
Hello everybody,

Would anybody be so kind to check if you can lock 12380V and 12418V from 36E ?
If this is the case please add the transmission data as well.
DVB-S or DVB-S2, QPSK or 8PSK, SR, FEC

Thank you very much in advance.
Best regards from Stuttgart/Germany

Those are in the Russian beam...its a no go zone I Africa

Chinedu7:
SONY ESPN HD new channel from SONY KIX & ESPN has started Test signal on Intelsat 17 at 66E. TP: 3845 H 30000.

Good news....was to view Superbowl next month

Spy360:
Please is intelsat 62E receivable in W Africa? What dish size? Someone said Irib with biss is on that sat. Thanks.

That beam is a challange to you even us guys in E.Africa is a tough but to crack

odilibe:
may be it was updated last info I got was from Facebook..

Al try with the 150cm offset n report back....was getting the south african beam with it ....crossing my fingaz

odilibe:
Stan sports is on the beam..it is obvious 1.8m can't get the EU/me/as/beam! on SS/NG

Peeps in Kenya should be close to the beam..
Then Stan sports...11014 V 3750
Encryption BISS

The to seems to be on the Russian beam according to flysat

chester1983:
powerVU key Tested and working on IS906 on AFN channels.I had to insert the keys manually to open using srt4920

AFN channels on which sat....I tried on 1W they didn't open

Twinsoris:
this low cost modify lnb perform better on 2.4m pan dish like STRONG AND EUROSTAR with this modify lnb i receive hotbird , hispasat , badr6 , nilesat e.t.c...

Hello thea bro ...have you tried with the small scaller like that one below that was used by old Fuji lnbs?

agkilis:
it didn't work i raise it above the feed assemble and it didn't work infarct i lost the signal,the problem is the lnb,if i can get a high gain lnb like inverto which will add 5% to my signal and thats all i will be fine.so for almost a year i Agkilis have been asking for inverto lnb and i have not been given,hmmm,i dont have words .am not happy i was promised this year g
January this year but this is April an am still looking for the same lnb is it that non of our great gurus can sell me this inverto lnb ?

When you changed the LNB location did you try to raise and lower the dish?

agkilis:
from your pic like the first pic,it means mine is correct only that i need a good lnb and the feed horn for my dish,if i could get that vsat feed horn an attach a good lnb voila am good to good,what about your 2.4m offset dish did you get it ?

Am using a 150cm offset am yet to get a 240. Am usifor a 380 for fridge reception
The first three photos are of c band conical scaller attached to a c band lnb...the last pic is the one you should concentrate coz its a Ku band lnb with a smaller conical scaller....if you can note well the lnb is abit higher from the feed assembly... Try it out

agkilis:
strong product lnb on dish

Lift the lnb an inch or two from its position

agkilis:
hi longtime my friend like i told you last 2 month the feedhorn was not there when i bought it .but if anyone has the feedhorn let him send it to me

Hello thea am doing great....I have a couple of pics that might help you...the focal point is just above where the the three feed supports meets...try correcting that n report back.....I've seen its universal for prodelin n channel master offset antennae

Nice pieces you got there....do the 3.8m get hotbird? Thnx

agkilis:
do you have it cause am ready to try everything

Hello thea bro....try from square one....get the original feed system that came with the dish and assemble it just as you found it before you dismantled your dish. it will give u the correct focal point coz I bealive you are missing an inch or two going towards the reflector and away from the feed support

Check out this photo by Mr. Kung'u hope it will b of help

"STAR SPORTS 3" INTELSAT@64E 11570 H 27500 MPEG4/HD/
DISH SIZE(7,FEET
Guys, i got dis info from d net. Can dis Bird b nailed here? Gurus pls do somtin abt it. Once it is obtainable, i wil serve d biss keys. Thanks

The beam is so far to the east....the guy with more luck must be on the shores of Somali coast or eastern Ethiopia

ManirBK:
dish size and your location?

Using a 3.8M dish....7E as the primary lnb and 10E as a secondary lnb
Am in Nairobi Kenya

Live now Barcelona vs Man City on GBS Eutelsat 10E 3729H 10321 with English commentary

manyax:
hello Gurus,
am asking if i can be able to combine Arabsat 20e and 7e on the same dish, my primary lnb is Abrabsat 20e c band on 1.80cm dish.
if possible explain in details on how to go about it. thank you.

Its possible tho u will get the African beam on 7E

odilibe:
below is the main beam of yamal 402 Ku band which crossed over UK and Europe and sub Africa...the channel will probably be $ and champion may require EPL rights over europe....in the home of EPL..

There are three beams on ua pic ie Northern/European,Southern &Steerable beams...champion TV will be broadcasting on the southern one that covers sub Saharan Africa venturing into Europe will b a big step...let's wait

sokopion:


Good work ,now i revers my comment

Yamal 402 African beam is strong as of big brother...you can use even 60cm dish in sub sahara,west africa & southern africa...about champion TV being free yesterday as watching the Real Madrid game it went scrabbled for a minute...let's enjoy while it lasts

Adex70:
pls what is the size of ur dish and ur location i am trying to see if i have got the focal point of my 4mt dish to enable me get this 7e europe beam i am getting hot bird 1116 at 70 the highest of all

My location is Nairobi Kenya using a prodeling 3.8M pf dish am not getting any hotbird tp but receiving Eutelsat 7e Europe B beam as it is nearer to me than hotbird
Check the beam below that am recceiving

odilibe:
even if you use inverto long neck lnb..it will still be at same focal point with mti lnb cos the lnb is on correct focal point!

If it gives me headache al have to extend or reduce the lnb support arms n play with the focal point....currently am on 7e European beam highest strength being 10762V on 87% and 11679V lowest on 77%...if I get an extra 5% am sure al nab the Europe A beam which resembles that of hot birdbird

odilibe:
yeah lnb is left with one outer scalar but the c band scalar ring was not removed..if you observe closely, cut was made at the back of the scalar,lnb holder was removed!cos I need the scalar to move backwards! to avoid blocking the lnb feed!

cheers!

Oooh I have seen all the scalers on c band are all thea....I bet using a long necked lnb like the inverto single will help in the moving up n down....

odilibe:
more pics!

Thnx for the pics....great full
I see the lnb is left with one outer scaler then the c band scaler has the inside scaler removed.....if the c band scaler is not cut does that affect the signal?

odilibe:
..there is nothing special,cut off some part of feed horn...remaining the plastic that covers the feed! the plastic cover gives extra improvements!

or you can cut off the plastic then use c band scalar ring with the ku lnb to reduce interference thereby improving signal quality..
.

Hello thea bro ...how do you connect the c band scarlet ring....show with aid of more photos
Am still using the single stargold Fuji.... A 7% increase will b a good boat on my side....thnx

emexi:


thanks brother.... the tps are so easy to get...keep up the goood work am here in enugu waiting for further update... just hope that our favorite mbcs would not be affected

Waiting for MBC'S on 102 to come alive this year to 201 happy new year all

blexxonmak:
diffraction,spillover,blockage by the subreflector,etc.

Morn bro...have you tried the Gregorian setup?...the subrefrector dosent block the dish coz its set at an offset angle....as those fibo dishes used in Europe as small as 90cm and they outperform a regular 90cm dish by farfar

odilibe:
..Yeah nilesat is the better option for fta!as usual you will get MBC movie package on 7west, some English channels like city7tv,CNN,pressTV,france24,BBC,aljazeera news,I FILM,bloomberg TV,mtv music mid-english!sometimes al oula under mbc package does English programmes, other transponder hosting nageo channel,gear one,Dubai sports 4 Arab! On 12226v27500 Are weak but it will be stronger when it will move to nilesat 201!if you have good 3m dish better still 3.2m or above you can point dish @7.3west and also focus on 7west to receive 12418H27500 ON eutelsat@7.3W for b4u movies( subtitled) ZEE living entertainment English! B4u India! Etc or 7.3west
12111H27500 Oman tv / Oman sports Hd
Cheers

Morn ...my quest for nailing Hot Bird came to a halt as I thought it may need a bigger dish as from 5M upwards to try an get the 40dbw beam that covers Middle East plus pan dishes have low efficiencies going down to 60% ...this means underutillised dish...

More to that getting a 380cm offset will push the efficiency to 70-75% and adding a subreflector to the system will kick it to 85% to max....fingers crossed
