2legit2qt what do u mean by Anthony ADMIN KEEP your ADMIN TO YOURSELF ALONE

He said Another ADMIN and not Anthony ADMIN.

Hello fellow Nlanders,
i really need to know the title of this song as well as the artist.

some say it is Alexander O'Neal and some say it is kashif. well i don't really know,
i use to have a tape of it but quite suddenly i lost it now i need the number.
i am attaching an audio clip of how i remember the chorus. . .i hope it is audible enough and meaningful for you all to help.

N.B
The forum does not allow for zipped files so i renamed it with an extension of .mp3, please rename to[b] .zip [/b]and extract to listen.
please if the right artist is found and posted here kindly mail to wallydon77[at]yahoo[dot]com too.
thanks and peace.

Good news,. . . . . . Let us keep our fingers closed and hope they don't disapoint like the much hyped up nilesat 201. New dawn is by africans, for africans, to africans. This will be like dish network in the USA. 800 channels fta. Can you handle that.

800 channels!!!!
What in God's name will BB do?

Like my esteemed member would say

Hmmm . . . . sounds like a plan 

@ sophie

@all,

so please i implore us all to kindly watch our language. . .
offensive language is not healthy for us all.

You are welcomed my brother.By the way,getting a dreambox,hd complaint with digital terrestrial capabilities will be a plus.Is there any of such on the market by the way?Anyway,I'll have to find out.Let me know if you hear anything.Will see what i can dig up from my end.

that will be something ehh . . .HD cum Digital terrestrial. . .that would really be something.

@Freshp,
the 69z is a genuine product according to the strong website http://www.strong-technologies.com/frmProdDetails.aspx?id=316#
I'm just worried about how the trends are going where you have to upgrade your gear every time something else comes to the market.Our communications authorities should try and set standards so that it will take at least 5-10 years before we all migrate to different standards.This will help us channel our resources for other things and reduce our imports for electronic goods *At least that is my little thought* and also we should try and buy the best once and for all.Trust me,you'll save a lot of money in the future.Now the counterfeiters are making so many fake products and putting them on our markets.Everyone should try and look at things twice before making a purchase.Peace!

@swordswifter,
i get your drift. . . it is simply becoming irksome . . .this business of new boxes every time.
well for now i had already set my eye on the 4930(and a dreambox ) so it's really doesn't bother me that much as I'm not really a fan of following trends asap-if you get my drift-all the same thanks for the correction.

Ilish:
Its a fake decoder.Strong Technologies has even put a msg on their website warning that it is not their product,Beware what you buy.Visit www.strong-technologies.com

i thought as much. . .69 this 69 that and now 69z !
thanks bro for the heads up.

@ segun
sorry i no call u again o.
na work o.
pls how do i get to pay you.
i seriously need the stuff o.

@ enibaba,
api bday my brother. May we live long to hunt more birds n not b huntedt !.

my felicitations go with you too o o o.
May the deities of FTA make it worth your while.

@ segun,
we don tire to de talk o. . .now its just an efficient use of the ignore button. and its very effective.
how are you

ping pong:
Is there no Strong 69x can pick their signals if one gets their smartcard? How many decoder person wan get for house?

In fact your 69X and above should pick up their signals when the smart card is inserted. My main problem with them is that even their so called STB does not have a card slot!!!(this is from a fellow nlander) and its not HD as claimed. i just wonder how they want to go about it.

as per the number of decoder one can possess,o man there is no limit o.
just ask the early esteemed members of this forum. . . and you'll understand what I'm about.

Vigilante:
Infinity just said they are going to encrypt their channels this month. So watch all you can now or go get their decoder

Like i said sometimes ago. . .they either go the way of Multi TV or forget it. . .
there is more entertainment out there.

gadotor:
. . . It,s the same as 1.11p software and l want you to know that 1.11p is the best software ,having the fast booting version and sound quality.thank you. . . .

i Agree with you bro . . . i agree.

If you dont have any upgrading business to do with your decoder don't do it with it.

miju:
na wa o. how many dishes we hang this 2011? well, the more the merrier! abi?

@ miju
yeah i feel you. . .but as George_D would say a motorised dish{perfectly aligned} makes it very easy a thing to do.
the more the merrier ooo

guzman45:
please house, is it possible to have two lnbs on a 90cm dish?

guzman45
From your post is obvious that you are just visiting. . .to help you out i will advice that you visit child boards.
simply go to the top of this page
look 4 something like "| Satellite TV Technology|" click on it you will be taken to the child boards.search for 3 in 1 lnb and 2 in 1 lnb topics read them.your answers are all there.

At this rate BB will soon be getting scared ooo !

i am really happy that things are now looking up for Africa in terms of beams and footprints.

so let us see what action(s) BB will take next.

@All,some goodies on w7 satellite tp 11428 V 30000.Its an Angolan Bouquet with 15 channels.Enjoy and happy viewing.

Good work man good work. . . long time.

miju:
@freshp you can be of help too sir.

I know that. . .its just that sometimes its easier to just wait for someone to give a better answer.
as for 66 E and 68 E issue. . .Gadotor is right. that is if its in terms of bigger dish (1.2,1.8 2.4M and above).

when it comes to 90cm dishes and below i think i little tweaking of the dish will be needed.

what kind of dish are deploying for this bird?

THIS IS AN INPUT ORIGINALLY ADDED BY ONE OF THE ESTEEMED MEMBERS OF THIS FORUM GEORGE D

When it comes to tracking out-of-footprint birds like nilesat and hotbird, the best ku lnb to use depends on whether you're using a fibre dish or metal (pan) dish. For fibre dishes, fuji lnb remains unbeatable. However if your using pan dishes, you have more options as to which lnb you can use. By far the best so far is invacom 4-way lnb. In the absence of that you can use digisat 0.2db or echosat 0.1db lnb. However, I must be quick to add that the effectiveness of the above lnbs will also depend on the quality of your dish as well as your dish alignment.

Now, a quick word on motorised dishes for out-of-footprint birds: Except you are extremely skillful like master adewest (in season 2 of this thread), if you motorize your dish for nilesat and hotbird, there is always the tendency to sacrifice signal strength and quality on some of the positions. I think that is what you're experiencing right now.

As for the tracking frequency, MTV Arabia or City 7 (11977v, 27500sr) still remains the most reliable tp for tracking nilesat. You can also use orbit showtime 11862v which you are using (but with limited success). If all else fails, you can always fall back to MBC frequency (11938v) which is more stable in cloudy weather.

@ George_D,
Thanks for that . . .this brief lecture presented above.so concise precise and informative.
i suggest we put it up on the reference thread.
once again good work there.

@ Amebo

Still Alive On and Clear,
how are you long time o.

swordswifter:
@Badaru,
. . . . If it's something else we are missing,let us know because from now on,when anyone mentions "GOODIES","GOOD Channels" or "GOOD STUFF",we are all inclined to expect something very exclusive.If it's anything else,feel free to post the details anyhow you want.

@ swordswifter
what else can be exclusive.

@freshp, enitan & ALL,
Pls dont crucify me, if u pay close attention, u'll notice that my time of posting is usually late night or early morning cos of my very very tight schedule but i promise to improve.
Pls dont misunderstand my silence as being RUDE OR SECRETIVE.

i have sent the details of sat & highest freq in my location to illish. @illish kindly distribute it.

I'll find time to give a comprehensive details of other sats.
PLEASE, ONCE MORE FORGIVE MY attitude. Thank you

Nobody is blaming you in fact my brother you have done well. . .thanks for keeping the spirit of FTA alive.

as for the emboldened statements the second is of interest. . .be careful how you do that.

williams85:
Kai IGNORANCE NO BE ONLY DISEASE OH, ITS MADNESS!

Q.E.S(quite easily said)

I love this statement-there's a HD station close to 13E where they show everything showbable concerning sporting events.

Pls, pls and pls lets not divulge it beyond the above statement in an open forum. Anybody asking should do it via PM. I  have enjoyed every bit of it for

2months & have shared it with a forum member here, only waiting for time to pass it round. Thank God u are doing it responsibly.

Finally its dawning. . .its dawning. . .its dawning on us the essence of the codes of silence

@Abdul010

You have the TP and symbol rate use them and find out what and what is there SIMPLE

@info
Gbam!!!

I just nailed the bird using 11557 and at a ridiculous 23 % i think it has to do with my location and weather condition.The second freq 11515 gave me 50%.funny enuf the signals were very very stable.Any comments,suggestions?
