Barkle: Hi gurus in the house,i'm from Ethiopia. I've been able to track and nailed twenty(20) different satellites in search of FTA football channel. In the past IRIB 3 @ 62e used to broadcast epl, laliga 4free but it no more does that now.right now there r channels that broadcast epl free but they r biss-coded and with my current decoder (eurobox 9700+), no way, it's impossible, so what shall i do? Can there be an uptodate software 4my decoder, if yes where can i get it? Are there non-biss coded fta that broad cast epl ,laliga & seria A. Thanx.
Try to get a strong decoder or any other that has a biss key provision. Biss keys are easy to find

Successful Launch of Intelsat 20
Continues Service for Africa's
Leading Video Neighborhood
through 2027 and Beyond
Intelsat 20 satellite provides high-
power distribution of video, voice
and broadband services in Asia,
Africa, Europe, Middle-East and
Russia
Luxembourg, 2 August 2012
Intelsat S.A., the world’s leading
provider of satellite services,
announced today that an Ariane 5
V208 launch vehicle successfully
launched the Intelsat 20 satellite from
Kourou, French Guiana. Liftoff
occurred at 4:54 p.m. EDT. 28 minutes
after launch, at 5:22 p.m. EDT, the
Intelsat 20 satellite separated from the
rocket’s upper stage and continued its
ascent toward geosynchronous orbit.
Signal acquisition occurred at 5:33 pm
EDT.
Built by Space Systems/Loral, Intelsat
20 will provide C-band and Ku-band
for DTH television, cellular backhaul
and VSAT services. The Intelsat 20
video neighborhood provides
premium programming that is carried
by the top Indian cable MSOs and
DTH operators, reaching more than
an estimated 90 million Pay-TV
subscribers across India. Intelsat 20
also hosts the largest DTH platform in
Africa.
Once operational in September,
Intelsat 20 will replace Intelsat 7 and
Intelsat 10 at 68.5° East, and is
expected to have a service life of
more than 18 years.
“With C-band coverage over four
continents and four regionally focused
Ku-band beams, Intelsat 20 provides
enhanced replacement capacity for
our prime video neighborhood at
68.5° East for DTH and distribution
services,” said Intelsat CEO David
McGlade.
Intelsat 20 is the third of five launches
planned for 2012. Intelsat 21 and
Intelsat 23 are also scheduled for
launch in the third quarter.

obnelly: Riveting in progress even after lunch we had a little rest inside the dish and test the focal point with a can of coca cola.whao! can you see the convergence rays inside the can.we should be done before this week runs out.God's willing.
OBNELly,You are an inspiration my bro....keep the fire burning of FTA

HAHAHAHAHAHA....come and get it bro.You are highly welcome my man
Satellite TV TechnologyRe: Free To Air Satellite Tv General Thread by Ilish(m): 9:10am On Jul 17, 2012
George_D: @Ilish,
Congrats for a successful installation. Like Lunsat advised, you won't get the full benefits of the 1.8m dish
unless you motorize it.

All the same I think you've achieved a feat.

Cheers!
Thank you bro.I have come to discover that we can find old Vsat dishes from the AUCTIONEERS.I got this one from an Auctioneer by the advise of my elder bro...LUNSAT who saw it earlier on.I am going to hunt and hunt and hunt and hunt....hunt more fringe birds.Next on the lineup will be Yahsat 1R at 52.E, then Telstar 12 at 15.W and Badr 4,5,6 at 28.E

My day's work.I have managed to fix the 1.8m ku offset dish with a Fuji lnb at Eutelsat 16A and signal quality was hitting 98% on most TPs.Am gonna move it to try Yahsat 1A next weekend

etcwest: @ All i have a wiz-tech 8888 USB HD PVR, i have searched the net on information concerning its function. on its menu it has WLAN and when you press it says no wireless device was found, and also when you press the green button on remote it says CCCAM initializing but cant find where to put the setting for CCCAM. please is any one has information on this receiver kindly help
I dont think wiz-tech 8888 is the best decoder for CCCAM.However, try Strong 4930 HD and you will not go wrong.

Sophieamore1: @AYIBATONYE,
NICE INFO, BUT THE BIG QUESTION WE HAVE TO ASK IS HOW LONG ARE THOSE FOREIGN CHANNELS FASHION ONE ET CETERA GOING TO LAST ON AMOS 5 (RRSAT) BEFORE THEY GET SCRAMBLED, AND LEAVE US WITH THE CHURCH CHANNELS?
Its high time people stopped worrying about SCRAMBLED channels anymore.This is 2012 and not 2002 when we used to run around with SABC / Etv Hex Codes...NO..As for the church channels, I would trade Mnet ot MBC Action for 3ABN or Hope channels.I enjoy these 2 religious channels and would dp anything to watch them.
Satellite TV TechnologyRe: Free To Air Satellite Tv General Thread by Ilish(m): 12:40am On Jul 08, 2012
If all TPs were as strongs as this,then all sats would be reachable...TV Central Afrique tp on Eutelsat 16a

Satellite TV TechnologyRe: Free To Air Satellite Tv General Thread by Ilish(m): 6:56pm On Jul 06, 2012
ugasat: Just noticed that STRONG SRT 4930 (S/W Version: 1.25p) has a very sophisticated satellite finder with a spectrum analyzer. While in normal channel viewing, press the green button and a sat finder window will come up with instructions. Those of you who understand how it works, please educate us on the best way to use it. I landed on it by accident while watching the Tour de France on Dubai Sports HD (Yahsat 1A at 52.5°E) freq. 11823 H 27500. The "TOUR" is also available on TV 5 (French dialog) Astra 4A @ 4.8°E freq. 12605 V 29950 and Dubai Sports (Arabic dialog) Nilesat 201 freq. 11785 V 27500. Only Dubai Sports HD on Yahsat has the English dialog with sharp pictures in glorious HD. By the way a number of AD Sports HD channels on Nilesat are currently FTA showing the Wembledon tennis tournaments in London. Enjoy.
It is meant for motorised system.However,it works as an ordinary finder too.Go to MENU-INSTALLATION-MOTORISED SETTING and then press organge button

Is that the best form of advertisement BUGS12?It takes real work to attract people to your site and not in this manner.This is "stoneage" kind of doing things.Let your work advertise for you bro.Nothing personal
