[quote author=George_D]@olenyi,

P.S: Have you noticed how many HD channels seem to be flooding C BAND satellites these days?

I'm so so amazed - and to think that most of them are for free! grin[/quote]I noticed. Dats why i said in one of my posts, that those who hack dstv hack it for sports and nothing else as ''other needs'' are covered by FTA.

And its good that people are migrating to HD. It makes for better picture and sound quality. And also affords those with HD rx and HD tv to experience a clearer, cleaner and more enjoyable tv viewing experience.

Though we're slow here in Africa to embrace new innovations, i forsee a future where all broadcasts will be in 3D so we can really get ''into'' the tv while viewing. )D

Regards.

[quote author=George_D]@olenyi,
Good to see you back. My 3-in-1 set set up is one that is actually optimized for pan dish motorised but I decided to leave it that way even though
I'm using mesh. This is partly because it serves my purpose given the kind of peculiar situation I find myself. I discovered that apart from Thaicom 5, Intelsat 7/10 C and packsat 1R, every other C band satellite within my range is circular polarity. I can get to them easily by placing the linear C band lnb at the bottom.
For linear C band satellites they can all be reached easily and with good signal strength by placing the circular lnb at the top. Because of the obstruction I have on the west side of the house, placing the circular lnb in the middle may prevent signal from getting to it before reaching the obstruction. Again, like I complained in season 3 of the FTA thread, my dish is prone to falling on the west side and placing the circular C band lnb that way to be the first on the west means it can actually receive signal on offset position before the dish gets to that point where it starts to fall.

I hope some of this makes sense to you?

As for the positioner, you are right. It is not the regular positioner we are used to. This is a diseqc positioner and it has more features than the normal type. Once programmed correctly, you can move to any position you like by just changing the channels on your decoder. You don't have to memorize any of the satellite positions.[/quote]I now understand. Its alright. I like the offset idea you employed to solve the ''falling'' problem. Quite ingenious. Though in the conventional jacks, u manually reset the upper and lower limits to checkmate the tendency to fall when one goes too far west. Even some positioners have provisions for that.

Others design a short iron that u affix to the west side of the dish so that it stops the dish at your desired position.


And yeah, it feels good to be back. Felt like i've missed a lot. But i've brought myself up to speed by reading the posts i missed.

Regards.

Oshinmichael: Pls can i use signal search to search 4 myTV or joyTV
Dont really get u but if u have a strong and u want to pick signals from a new satellite, u use manual scan under installation sub menu.

Or better still re-phrase ur question and we'll be of help to u.

@ Oga George_D.

Looking at ur setup got me wondering. In all my similar setup's, i usually put the normal C band in the middle for maximum signal reception. Then the other C band underneath the first one for linear satelites like intelsat 7/10 C. And the ku, i place on top as most of the ku signals have high signals and considering the dish size, a little shunting to the side wouldn't affect it much.

So am wondering if there's any special reason for putting ur ku lnb in the optimium position (middle) considering its high signals, and sacrificing the C bands dat normally need all the signals they can get?

Regards.

Ps. That ur positioner looks top-of-the-range. We are used to the normal EUROSTAR and SUPERJACK stuff. cheesy

oseijuade: thanks very much for u help i am having a Little problem with my dish it keeps fluctuating switching from red to green can i get some advice pls
What is ur signal level like? I'll suggest u re-adjust ur dish and try and get the signal level to like 55% upwards at the least for mbc freq.

But first, try rotating your lnb and see what happens. Also, if it feasible for u, relocate ur dish from dat roof top to a plumb pole on the ground. Ew3a is always a tricky bird and sometimes requires all sorts of measures in other to pull it down. Regards.

And all.

Sorry for being AWOL. I've being battling with Malaria parasite and Pneumonia since the 6th of this month.

I haven't being able to do anything since then, shuttling between my house and the hospital.

Though am getting better, but for someone who doesn't fall sick quite often (its been more than a year plus i last fell sick apart from the occassional headache that you pop some pills into your mouth and go your way), this is quite debilitating.

My behind and top of my hand where i've received countless I.M and I.V injections and infusions now fell numb to me.

I'll bounce back soon enough.
Thanks for the concern.

My warm regards, olenyi. smiley smiley smiley

If i was the head, marketing of multichoice, i'll advice them to bring out a bouquet just for sports, made up of just SS1 to SS10, SS select, blitz, espn, espn classic and euronews. Let them put the price at say #4000, just like HITV did when they were on, and all this piracy will go. People hack DSTV just for football. Multitv serves the other purpose. QED.

The one i've seen tells u the phone numbers of all the ppl beside u. I've forgotten the name.

Say u want tot get a girls number, all u do is activate the software and stand about two, three meters from the girl. Both her number and everyother person's number,geta displayed on ur screen.

It runs like a radar screen so u know the number representing each dot on ur screen to avoid mix up.
Satellite TV TechnologyRe: Strong Receivers Thread by olenyi: 8:17am On Jan 14, 2013
Pidzo: Lets see what happens bro. I am also very surprised. Somebody brought his SRT 4669XII saying he cant watch SABC channels. Upon inspection I found out that 6969 was not working. Checking the software version I discovered it's 2013 version and I knew this must be the dreaded OTA upgrade. I reinstalled the 'safe' previous version and disabled the OTA upgrade option (I changed the frequency and symbol rate to a non-existent one and also the sat name). To my surprise what the receiver did first in the morning was to start a fresh OTA upgrade!! shocked shocked
Just suggesting.

Try deleting 12522 from the freq list entirely.

My reasoning being dat as dat is the freq dat carries the upgrade software, it might solve the problem.

Also i once scanned 68'e and got a channel named ''sofware something''. Could it be dat, dat is now what they are using for those dat'll bypass the OTA menu.

Just thinking.

Look for 12560 or any number around dat value in ur frequency list and edit dat one. Moat probably, a similar number exists dia already. Dat why its returning dat msg.
