Bowofola213: is dat frequency wrking in nigeria

if you r in nigeria the Europe B beam of Eutelsat 7E resembles that of badr.....if you have a 2.4M dish onwards you can take a short of this bird.
Satellite TV TechnologyRe: Free To Air Satellite Tv General Thread by Freddygaz(m): 1:01am On Dec 21, 2013
Ogojohn: At what dish size are you talkin of here?
my location is East Africa. using a 150cm offset...hope it helps
Satellite TV TechnologyRe: Free To Air Satellite Tv General Thread by Freddygaz(m): 6:06pm On Dec 20, 2013
Seaman2010: Thank you Freddygaz, please what is the TP to track Eutelsat 7A East.
use 10721H 22000 for BBC persia and make sure you hit atleast a 75% on signal quality then blind scan n the d*g*t*urk channels will pop out.....get a strong 4922 hd receiver patched with 137p and ur good to go smiley
Satellite TV TechnologyRe: Free To Air Satellite Tv General Thread by Freddygaz(m): 10:44am On Dec 20, 2013
Seaman2010: Please, what is the TP to track SES 5 And Eutelsat 7A at 7 degrees East. Which is a better Satellite in terms of Sports and Movies?
most definately Eutelsat 7A East.....documentaries are to die for smiley
Satellite TV TechnologyRe: Free To Air Satellite Tv General Thread by Freddygaz(m): 10:42am On Dec 20, 2013
odilibe: Interesting! What sat are you trying to lock with 4m dish bro...
Morn....will use Bardr as the reference sat...if it gives me a resonable signal coz am almost 25 degress south of you al be confident to try 13east,19east or the elusive 23 and 28east!

odilibe: Seems like some of Yahsat-1A C-band Transponders has being utilized for broadband services.....while some of the/It's ku band HD Channel frequencies..looks miserable for fringe receptions a FEC rate as high as 8/9 and 7/8 will be difficult on off footprint areas.... that means bigger dish sizes neededembarassed embarassed
...

......you are right thea bro..according to your locatiob you need atleast 3.5M dish to nab the western beam wereas here am using a 90cm.....more to that av gotten a 4M mesh dish tht I want to convert into solid....hope it will turn good and positive smiley smileyhttps://farm8.staticflickr.com/7445/11418321396_31180d036d.jpg[/img]

drandonzero: Yeah, try nilesat 7W with 11977 V 27500
or NSS7 20W on 3983R 25000
Satellite TV TechnologyRe: Free To Air Satellite Tv General Thread by Freddygaz(m): 5:36pm On Dec 17, 2013
odilibe: new sat to look out for, with ku middle east/europe / africa  C-band footprint, yahsat 1a @52.5east.(www.flysat.com/yahsat1a.php) yahsat 1a was launched with intelsat new dawn on 22/april/2011,according to flysat fox movies now on the ku middle east footprint.
their C band foot print its long overdue with no frequencies registering channels.....kiping our fingas crossed!

odilibe: you are right bro, ...i have to upload a test result from another uk forum on fringe lnb(s)....while the remaining evidence is to confirm this test results...hehehe grin

www.satellites.co.uk/forums/threads/best-lnb-for-the-fringe-satellite-reception.156245/
I better stick with my inverto quads and ultra on my offsets...they are good performers!wil give u an update too when I go full fridge on Astra bro!
Satellite TV TechnologyRe: Free To Air Satellite Tv General Thread by Freddygaz(m): 10:38pm On Sep 15, 2013
odilibe: I was referring to lnb conversion gain dB signal amplification...and you are describing lnb; low noise-block down-converter or how it works

lnb receives microwave signal from the satellite collected by the dish,amplifies it..(it is the gain-dB of the lnb that will define how much the in-coming signal is amplified).... converts it to lower frequency then sends the signal to the receiver via coaxial cable....

looking at MTI lnb on pic below...it has a high conversion gain-dB of 70dB...where the specification is correct! this will define how much the in-coming signal will be amplified...

when specification is correct! .an lnb with 70dB gain should be performing better than an lnb with 55db gain and when used on a long cable run.....where low noise figure plays a part in picking weaker signals...

In the mean-time MTI AK54-XT2N with noise figure;0.2dB and 70dB gain..seems like a good competitor for black ultra quad noise figure; 0.2dB and gain of 60dB. grin
Hehe we stil singing the same tune!best way I knw to hav a gud lnb is to go on field n do a nyc thorough test on each of d lnbs!kudos bro!
Satellite TV TechnologyRe: Free To Air Satellite Tv General Thread by Freddygaz(m): 12:23am On Sep 15, 2013
odilibe: These are high gain lnb(s) designed for weak signal areas....with low noise figure..and high conversion gain_make it suitable for long cable runs..the lnb gain determines how much an in-coming signal is amplified before being sent off down to the coaxial cable and to receiver....
Quite the reverse...an LNB receives the very low level microwave signal from the satellite, amplifies it, changes the signals to a lower frequency band and sends them down the cable to the indoor receiver.

Ball22: @arelukman,does is cover all part of nigeria.plz respond nd is it fta?

Judging by your GEOGRAPHICAL position its unlikely to nab it in NIGERIA....The SAT is way down on your arc
This are the photos to my Set up.....

Umasoor.u should give the house the number of tps you are able to get with your 4m.
Dear Obnelly are you stil getting 19E and 28E Uk beam?if so whats your dish size!am planin to go fridge reception on these birds soon!thnx
