Hi guys, I tried to nail Nigcomsat using 12518H/29500 few days ago I couldn't hit green. Instead, I was getting joy TV with the same TP. Kindly help. Has the to changed? Thanks

Lol I've not even started using it for up to a week and it's just two satellites thats connected to the decoder
Try do a factory reset on it and if it's still persists then return it since you just start using it

I guess you are using TSTV decoder, why not try out another decoder (probably FTA) to confirm it is not from the dish.

You tracked Startimes instead of DStv...DStv is East while Startimes is South

Thanks for the quick response.

I will go back and try again today.



It then means that, I will start moving the dish to the left from where I got the startimes signal abi? And I hope the lnbf skew is ok at that 9'oclock?


Sorry for the many questions

It should be connected to rf out. Use a signal booster to get clearer picture

Hi guys, anytime i switch on my decoder (4954) there'll be no signal at all, until i perform a blind scan.
Isn't it supposed to scan the channels itself once i switch it on?.... Any solution to that?
Factory reset and rescan
If that doesn't work reload the firmware
If it doesn't work, return the STB
Re: Free To Air Satellite Tv General Thread by philipbash: 12:44pm On Dec 12, 2021
Satellite decoder will not scan channels by itself. You need to blindscan manually except you are using gotv, dstv or startimes
Re: Free To Air Satellite Tv General Thread by Princedevoe(m): 2:32pm On Dec 12, 2021
Please l need working satellite names and their frequency. Thanks

You Are Right, But I Think What He Mean Is That, While Tracking StarTimes The Dish Always Faces South Not East.

Between Hellobox 6 and Hellobox 8 which one should I buy and price? Are they rugged? What about Strong 497s? Thank you
