atoje:(1) you should be converting pal to NTSC but not ntsc to pal, since your tv system is ntsc, below is a typical example of tv video converter it cost 23.95 pounds on amazon.co.uk, if you think ntsc system is the troubleshooting on your tv,may be you should go into the market and look for a video system convertor. even converters are used on playstation/vcr etc. (2)any satellite receiver that has pal/ntsc modulator , can work on any tv that comes with pal or ntsc system, you need to switch to appropriate system that match your tv either pal or ntsc and most strong receivers has ntsc /pal modulator if 4663 or 4669 has NTSC modulator it can work well on ntsc tv as a satellite tv.for tv system converters follow this link(www.amazon.co.uk/VIDEO-SYSTEM-CONVERTOR-BOX/dp/B000RN2292/ref=sr_1_1?i.e=UTF8&qid=1310979016&sr=8-1)

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.

jayboskie7:This question was directed to twinstaiye @moderator right, he claimed to have tracked the sportsmax free on intelsat 805 @55.5 west on part 1 page1 of this thread with the frequency 3467/3255 C-band, currently intelsat 805 seems not have the above frequency, only 3735 V 8681 C-band, sportsmax footprint is for north/south america/europe check lyngsat, for twinstaiye post you may refer to (www.nairaland.com/nigeria/topic-7715.0.html)another satellite has sportsmax frequency is intelsat/IS 707 @53degrees west, frequency 3820 sr 3255 on west hemi ,which is north america/south america footprint.i tried to track sportmax with motorised 2.5metre dish in enugu yrs back but no success with frequency stated by twinstaiye. your question can you track it with 90cm dish? the answer is no,sportsmax is on C-band it require a big dish, even with 3mtr dish i doubt if anyone can track it in west africa.intelsat 805 footprint (www.lyngsat-maps.com/intel805.html).sportsmax is also scrambled on digiturk w3a at 7east europe beam.They play epl ,champions l,( www.sportsmax.tv) |
spaceman:(www.costablancasatellite..com/2011/06/mbc-launch-hd-channels-on-nilesat-201.html),according to mbc media group the current version of mbc channels in sd resolution remains fta. |

who made this post in the first place? as if i don't know. plumber vs unemployed cute guy, hahaha.as if a plumber can't be cute.this post needs amendments lmao. am offline. |
Kungu:why flysat report of aljazeera frequency 11985H/27500 back on nilesat 101, on 27-06-2011? 201 is to replace 101, while 101 is still active @7west untill then. i mean don't expect any serious migration untill 101 is switched off,cheers. |
I Hacked:you just mounted your 2.4m today.as you said, here are some pix.And i qoute, where is the pics? |
Wellydra: Ilish:southern africa are limited to few satellites at the C-band,most of the european/middle east satellites are not visible as fringe reception on that region, i believe the dstv will be making huge profit from this region i assume that may be the more reason why south africa wanted to launch there own satellite intelsat new-dawn which has sub-sahara africa/africa C -band coverage. All though the satellite failed. hence @ilish you are within the footprint of nss12ku @57east and arabsat 5a @30.5west, whereras wellydra is out of the footprint, probably he can't track those satellite with the stated dish size,may be he will require more than the stated dish size,i assume a 1.8meter pan dish will track nss12 ku, east africa beam since zimbabwe is close to the footprint, you can use this sites to check footprint and minimum required dish size for all satellites,(www.satbeams.com/footprint?position=331). |
Lunsat: olofofo:@olofofo thanks for the info, on the santech ku lnb . @lunsat, the bbc english/arabic channels on, thor 5/6 @1west they are all radio channels.even if you are able to have access on those radio channels,they don't show video broadcast. |
if anyone know the exact name of this prime focus ku lnb pls let me know. cheers
|
gadotor:2.4meter mesh dish is equal to 1.8meter pan dish on ku signals. good luck |
blexxonmak: Eltonluigi:Is there other way to solve linear and circular polarity problem on C-band ,may be you should consider attaching double C-band lnb on your prime focus dish, in which one of the 2 lnbs should have the dielectric removed, that will even serve you well on pas 7/10 @68.5east, as for thaicom 5 ,you need 2.5mtr dish cos the global beam on thaicom 5 is not strong,one more thing can your dish be able to go down as low as 78.5east-thaicom 5 when using a motorized set-up/dish, cos that will be another troubleshooting. |
jayboskie7:you did not include your location, and dish size used to track nilesat by your installer,that will make it difficult for anyone to answer your question, besides lnb is not a shortcut to get good signal on any satellite, get a bigger dish.MBC is on nilesat 102/201. |
Pidzo:Then how many pay tv providers are fully on HD, of course none yet, even multichoice africa, is not fully on HD they can only add few HD channels to thier contents in other to sell HD boxes,sky uk is not even fully HD just few HD channels,some pay tv providers don't even have a single HD channel, does zuku package has a single HD channel question?that makes me to think what is your point. on the other hand NHK world is not the only fta HD channel on satellite,if you are looking for satellites that has HD channels, you can easily check lyngsat, moreover badr @ 26east has HD free to air channels eg 12245V 27500 alkas sports HD,11785V27500 luxe HD,10730V27500 Saudi sports HD,12I69V27500 dubai sports HD,12226H27500 bahrain HD. |
Ilish:But it has allready been achieved .The only difference in this case is that the lnb is line up horizontal on a straight line, this is a method of dish installation in the uk to pick 28.2east ,23.5east,19.2east,16east and 13east cos most european satellites has strong transponders example astra @28.2east, of-course most people on this forum has upto 2 to 4 lnbs attached on their prime focus dish vertically etc. |

chi4all: Sensicut: Eltonluigi:i don't see anything wrong with this question ,it is either you ignore a question or answer it. moreover not everyone on this forum can track hotbird or even nilesat single handedly or have a massive dish to do so yet. i just made a statement. |
Kungu: satlaunch:@satlaunch ,Ofcourse atlantic bird 4a was launched 2yrs ago @7west, but it will be replaced by atlantic bird 7 to be launched in 4th quarter 2011. Atlantic bird 4a will be redeployed/sent to its original position @13degrees east ,where it will revert to it's original name Hotbird 10,the only error @kungu's post is Hotbird 4 it should be Hotbird 10. |
Ellahdarrell:try this link and scroll down for it,(www.key2sat.net/#) |
Twinsoris:you can't see paksat 1 @38degrees with 1.8m dish, nigeria is in west africa ,according to the footprint ,nigeria requires at least a 2.5m dish to track paksat 1, i tracked paksat 1 in enugu, nigeria/west africa with a 2.5m mesh dish, even with a 2.5m mesh dish, i can't get all the C2 transponders , thats by the way, but in abidjan according to the footprint, you need at least 3.9meter dish to track paksat 1 @38east ,on that note you can't track paksat 1 with 1.8meter dish,easier tp star asia 3886/6200 ,cheers |
Femwal:i can't assist you, but you can track intelsat @68.5east with 1.8m dish,set your lnb @2'0clock, don't use the dielectric plate and the C band lnb should be 1centimeter out from the lnb holder, track with aljazeera news frequency 4064 H 19850 , cheers |
Newtonn:That fuji lnb is not for prime focus dish and there is no such thing as an HD lnb as claimed to be,and no you can't track nilesat on a 1.8meter fiber dish, in your location |
For peoples wanting to track zuku, bear in mind it's a pay tv. just in case they go scramble, sooner or later, mpeg -4 dvb for that matter.- |
gadotor:it is very obvious that zuku package is a paytv ,encryption cryptoworks, set up your 2.4m dish probably fixed to nss12 if you one is able pick the channels, in a few days it will be scrambled,then what, does it worth it. |

[quote author=George_D link=topic=475178.msg8127839#msg8127839 date=1302806335]@jibrill 7, When installing a motorised dish, it's always advisable to use Ku lnb to track because you get more accurate results that way. So if your having problems with your c band lnb, just track those satellites that have combined c+ku frequencies then when you've gotten a perfect arc you can replace the ku lnb with a c band in the same position. Better still get a single combined c+ku lnb like the one in the picture. You get the best of both worlds. Hope this helps?[/quote]I have used the combined c+ku lnb, it is just a waste of money, in that if you put the dielectric plate, try it on intelsat 10@68.5 that has both the ku and c-band tp with linear polarization i.e H/V ,since the dielectric disturbs the H/V polarity on a c-band transponder if not removed ,it will disturb the ku band Transponder as well. i have tested this lnb on intelsat 10 @68.5,with this frequency, 12722V 26657 and 12722H26657 i could not pick both tp @ the same time with the dielectric .if you try it on eutelsat w7 with the dielectric installed in the lnb ,you can't pick most tp, and if you remove the dielectric you won't pick the most transponders with circular polarity R/L on the c-band. Attaching a ku band lnb separately with c-band lnb on a single dish is the best method to receive both the c-band tp at the same time. |
