any sat that cannot be tracked with 60cm to 90cm is not an innovation, thats means it is not free to air, when we are going to spend 10 to 12 thousand naira just to buy a dish, "my guys that one na pay tv na", we need cheap and free to watch sat.

gurus in d ause ar u guys sure dat dis arabsat5a 30.5east is a c band sat?
Re: Free To Air Satellite Tv General Thread by graphicicon(m): 8:51pm On Oct 05, 2014
The gurus in the house, i think we have to make a research, by looking for an element when attached to 60cm dish to make it work like 4m dish, or even any other material that will attract more signal at least 4 times the normal signal, that will make us move to the next level and also will enable us track any satelite accross the globe with little cost, i call all other gurus like George D, twinstaye and host of other gurus to go the drawing board. i arrest my case.

Perhaps with powerful "Out of Footprint" LNB,may be a reality.
Re: Free To Air Satellite Tv General Thread by blexxonmak(m): 10:05pm On Oct 05, 2014
@graphicicon. The first step in d design of a dish antenna is 2 determine d value of D to achieve a reqd gain or EIRP.
Re: Free To Air Satellite Tv General Thread by blexxonmak(m): 10:22pm On Oct 05, 2014
Thus if u are within d coverage zone and the EIRP is equal or > the EIRP rating of ur dish u will get a good receptn
Re: Free To Air Satellite Tv General Thread by blexxonmak(m): 10:33pm On Oct 05, 2014
That's why I often tell my clients that I don't just fabricate dishes but I fabricate on specifications.

can the lnb capture, most of the satellite signal that is reflected to the focal point by the satellite dish!
Re: Free To Air Satellite Tv General Thread by fantastickisses: 11:15pm On Oct 05, 2014
The most painful thing about this Eriteria tv2 is that, they show epl, ucl, laliga, ligue1 WITH GOOD ENGLISH COMMENTARY! It is a Station that give their lives in showing live matches with good english commentator. If i can't track this bird with 1.8m, i will close world's FTA door and there will be nothing like fta Again! This bird is like a sweet potato that came down from heaven and have stained all over my lip i can't taste of it.
