Na. No sim slot. Get it touch with their customer care/dealers and start recharging it if it didn't come with free subscription.

faithchild: i saw three things if not four mistake,1 your dish surface needs to be cleaned,2 d lnb screw should be 3 or 9 oclock depending on your location,3 d tp for ajazeera it is 4054 h 27500 not v and irib is3964 v 30000 not h as showned by d pix,do this and report back to d house
Not to disprove you.

But have you considered his dielectric position? That will automatically change his polarity. So he may be right in his polarization.

Funny enough that his lnb skew is my standard skew for C-Band lnb's. I don't deviate from it no matter the sat being tracked.

Though his dish surface needs touching, but I believe the reason for the ''no audio/no video'' he's getting is because of the low signal %. Should it come up a bit, the on screen msg will go.

Fred4life: PLS THE HOUSE AND @ OLENYI AFTA FIXING D CBAND ON MY NET DISH I WAS ABLE TO GET EAST BT I COULD NT GET MIDDLE AND WEST...PLS HELP ME.
Your dish needs to be re-alighned if that's the case. But before that, did you try it on CNN (new frequency not the old one mind you) and CFI/DWTV and you got nothing?


Use a chalk or nail to mark the position of your dish at three different point on the body of the dish neck and the pole. This is so you can easily return it to its former position and also to know how much you should adjust your dish.

Take off the jack. Now loosen the bolts holding the dish to the pole just a little bit. Rotate the dish west and try getting your signal. Just like you use to track signal, go a little left or right. When you hit green, tighten, mark the new position and check the deviation from the former position.

Rotate east again and see if you can still pick your east sat's. If no, then loosen the bolt holding the neck to the pole once more, get your 24/27 spanner and adjust the ''nut'' on the adjust screw protruding horizontally from the dish neck a little in such a way to merge the different east and west points you marked on your pole.

Now try your east and west again to see if you can now get it on the same dish arc.

Keep at this till you get it to get both east and west with one arc swing.


Hit us back with any problems you encounter.

pofolo: I plan tracking Arabsat5c on 90cm dish and apart from the dish ,these is what have gat.
I'v got 3 pictures below, the lnb i got i guess doesnt have the dialectic plate.
my questions are, do i need remove the plastic cover?, is dere any need for the dialectic plate, and if yes can i get a make-shift and with what.

or i will be so happy if anyone can post pics here.
THANKS ALL
There's no way you can get a new C-Band lnb without the dielectric. If yours don't have one, go back to your dealer and get it. It comes standard with the C-Band. it's not an optional accessory.

earthrealm: newbie question: I have dstv in my house...and I want to share the connection to other rooms in the house.......the house is wired for for tv connections ie each room has a tv cable port, presently my dish decoder is in the sitting room......
Get about 15 yards of coaxial cable, get about 10 F-connectors, 10 male tv plug (iron type),


Now cut out about 3 yards of cable or as needed. Affix an F-connector to one end and screw on to the port labelled ''RF out'' at the back of the decoder. Screw on an F-connector to the other end of the cable and also screw on one tv plug to it and plug in to the wall socket. (this effectively distributes the signals to the whole house. At the end of the day, if there is need to boost the signals, this is where you will put your signal amplifier).


Now what you do next is , go to each room, cut out about 3 or so yards of cable, affix one F-connector on each end. Screw on one tv plug on each of the F-connectors. Plug one end to the wall socket and the other to the back of the tv (antenna in port), search your tv like you are searching for NTA. And viola, its done.

Now repeat the same procedure in each room.

If the signal you're getting is not satisfactory, then you'll need to source for an ''20/25db alcad signal amp''.

NB: I believe there should be a junction box somewhere near the electrical control switch/distribution box. If the signals are not coming through, you might check here to see if the wires where joined.

If you get confused, come back for more.

notindome: hello friends. pls anybody with information on where i can get 1.2m dish in Kaduna and the cost should let me know. Thanks.
In Kaduna, you should get it along ''kachia'' road. That is if you are coming from railway station, past the bridge, just before the ''kaswa'', you'll see the satellite/electronics dealers.

Hope this helps you.

The tank where it was shot was a lot bigger than that one in the pix. I was aware that a special tank was built for the filming of titanic ( I think at a studio in new mexico/mexico/canada) and most of the scenes were simulated.

Satellite TV TechnologyRe: Free To Air Satellite Tv General Thread by olenyi:
satmaniac: @all d gurus on board,gud evening,I am here to seek for helpful input on an issue.hope I will have your attention.
Well,its like this;there is this 4940 reciever I have been trying to run multi room distribution of about 7 rooms with.
At first I try using it av system to run the distribution point,which I later discover at some point the audio/video is not clear ie the reciever cant take up to that amount of TV(7) So I discard the Idea.
A friend suggest I use Av to rf converter transponder,with coaxial cable,that I try also it turn out to be worse.
I will like to know if there's a better way arround it,or if there is something wrong with my method.
I am expectin you guys,Thanks and remain blessed.
Go to the market and get one female iron tv plug, 7 iron male tv plugs, 16 f connectors, two 4 ways eurostar splitter (or one eight way splitter if you can get one), one alcad av to RF converter signal amplifier (#8000), two packs of tower plastic clips, and one or two rolls of coaxial cable.


Now connect one f connector to one end of your cable. Screw on the female tv plug and plug to your alcad converter. Connect your av wires to the rx and the other end to the appropriate ports on the converter.

Now run your cable accordingly using the spliter to split the signal coming from the converter to the different tv's.

When you are done laying your cable, plug in/on your alcad converter and viola, you are done.

Alternatively, look for any old video cassette player with channel settings or some dvd players with ''RF in'' and ''RF out'' ports. Just plug your av wire coming from your receiver video and audio out ports to the video cassette player av in port. Then connect your cable with the f connector and the female tv plug to the ''RF out'' port at the back and you are good to go.


Regards.

Satellite TV TechnologyRe: Motorising Big Dishes (1.8meters And Above) by olenyi: 5:14pm On Sep 30, 2013
trek4000: Hi Guru' out there? can anyone in zambia help me with the three satellites east,west and centre that i can capture when aligning my motorised 2.4m Dish.
SULIEMAN3: try obtaining maximum signals on the following sats: dstv(12245h27500), eutelsatw3a(12728h/v30000), go to west and track CNN(03983v25000). I think the given satellites should do you good.
You should use intelsat 20k (mytv) or C (Aljazeera) for the east.



better still, mytv for east, W3a for centre and nss7 for west. Or ewtn/Aljazeera (intelsat 20c) / itv, eatv, star tv on intelsat 906 for east, pentagon on intelsat 10-02 for center and cnn for west.

AutosRe: MOST EXPENSIVE PRE ORDERED SUV IN 2013 ( By Akin Alabi From Inspired Autos ) by olenyi: 10:04pm On Sep 27, 2013
akinalabi: Inspired don crase.

Even me wey get the car, the suspense catch me.

Anyway, inspired is a great guy. Very honest and straight forward. He delivered right on schedule and I have placed an order for another SUV.

As for the car, it is an amazing ride. Lots of features I haven't finished using.

I'm particularly loving the Run Flat Tyres. For those hearing this for the first time, this means that the tyre can still work for like 300km after puncture. Because of this, the car does not come with extra tyre. Also, there is no wheel spanner, no jack no nothing.

So it happened 2 days ago.

I was coming from Ibadan to Lagos. Just before I got to the Redemption Camp, I ran into a deep pot hole and the type got torn.

Not punctured o. TORN!

As in, di tyre TEAR.

Believe it or not, from the Redemption camp to Lekki Lagos, I rode with a TORN tyre without any negative effect. It displayed on the screen that I should not move more than 80km per hour which was decent enough.

Drove it to Coscharis, Lekki Epe way the next morning to have the tyre changed. It's change now.

I can go on and one about this ride. Make una tell inspired to order for una as well. cheesy

As for the number plate, I couldn't come up with a better number than X6-M.

It fits it perfectly.
Now that's one hell of a beastly ride. shocked shocked shocked

Exactly. Its the same technique. The difference between the two is just a few inches. Just input 12015 v 29950 and follow the guidelines for W3a. You will get it.

Or better still, you can check my posts (olenyi, olenyi1, olenyi2), I once outlined the steps for a member here. Just the time to go digging for it is my problem.

Satellite TV TechnologyRe: Unknown Strong Decoder by olenyi:
That is one of the first set of receivers brought in my strong technologies/mytv before they even floated the mytv package. It was the ''ish'' during the time it was introduced and had a decent signal reception/sensitivity.

Don't go buying that stuff because (1) its mpeg 2 and (2) there won't be any original of it still left as it was discontinued more than 6 years ago.
