Track 5e ku first with a ku lnb, then change to cband lnb, input the frequency and adjust the dish
Good idea.

I think Penuelseun has answered you. Remember that with 5e, your dish is facing the sky directly.
Install your C band LNB and use TVC frequency and symbol rate (3701H, 5000SR). Skew ur LNB initially
at the 2 o'clock position, if it doesn't work, use 10 o' clock position. Move slowly from west to east while
gently rocking your dish up and down. Be patient and you will hit signal.
Is there possibility of obstruction from trees or fence since it is facing the sky? My dish is located near the fence. I will give it another shot tomorrow.

The price is reasonable considering that they are installers that will even do it for N1500 or 2k.
Oh I see! Can you be so kind to help fix both Nigcomsat and joy for 1500 or 2k, or if you know anyone that could. It would be highly appreciated�

I'm not sure anyone would accept this amount from you.

₦2000 can't even cover transportation in Lagos locations these days talkless of you wanting to pay ₦2000 for transportation and Labour.

It's either you DIY or be ready to spend at least ₦7000. (₦2000 transportation and ₦5000 labour)

Installers are human beings that need to feed as well

Since your dish will be facing the sky directly, its unlikely that any obstruction will prevent you
from receiving signal unless of course if you decide to install the dish directly under a tree or canopy smiley

To me I feel he would be wasting the potential of this dish because of AIT that Aluminum antenna can deliver or instead buy a free TV decoder that has 40 stations for #1500 sub a year.

What's your suggestion please

Use Antenna for AIT. Use the 1.8m Dish to get 68e cband and get BBC, CNN, Aljazeera, Sky News, and lots more for foreign news using Powervu or any auto roll powervu decoders e.g CSat. On the same dish you can add 16e, 26/28e,42e for TVC and 51e

You said your interest in local news.

Yes majorly. Then foreign news and possibility of live football.

I have compared 68.5e, 60e and 5e. All have local content and foreign news but 5e wins for me because of AFN sports.
