..using a cut offset lnb on a prime focus dish with attached C band scalar ring can reduce noise and improve signal quality on fringe receptions!

wanted to try the same with inverto single and fuji cut feed...share the pics about the length of the throat

came to notice that the single fuji has an extra scaler ring than the twin and quad....so the single might perform better by a good margin

you have to cut off only the scalar ring or where the ku lnb cap ends! then when i attached a flat c band lnb scalar ring to the Ku lnb holder on prime focus dish, there was an improvement....I would have post PIC but I am not close to the dish at moment..

I need someone in Ibadan who can help me with a new account for my azsky. Waiting to hear from anyone who can. Thanks

So it means the inverto throat shud b kept to its maximum minus the conical scaler.....and place the flat scaler without its throat....take a look of the flat scaler that I cut....

..are myhd free channels or pay monthly! I tracked badr with my cousins 3m dish and digisat twin lnb in Onitsha/Nigeria, where aljazeera 11334H27500 appeared to be strongest tp on 26east in respect to fringe TP.though I didn't tweak lnb to get other channel on that sat! just for fun I moved dish to 13east ..hit the bird within 5minutes of tracking with sat finder frequency 11334 appeared to be strongest tp on Hotbird...hotbird is more closer than that badr..lol,returned dish to nilesat and hit 76% on 11766/27500 on SRT 4665*/dvbs receiver, 47% on ws-6906 sat metre!
scanned some frequency, using Strong receiver!

hello guys,it's been long. just decided to say hi pals!
ONE LOVE.

Yeah its a prime focus lnb bt its spoilt....the second reason to cut is the inverto black has more gain than the fuji.....the question is how to fit the fuji feed perfectly on the inverto without ruining it

MY-HD channels are pay TV which amounts to 55$ per year....you are lucky u still dancing on 13east tried with the 380cm and failed bt am getting Badr 26e....have you ever tried Eutelsat 7E? you should try it for digiturk....if you nail it al embark on 13e till I sweat blood n tears lol

Freddygaz:

you are right inverto black has more gain than Fuji!but inverto black lnb throat is wider than Fuji so the feed may not fit!..best option is to remove the inverto lnb cap without cutting it...and attach fuji feed in inverto lnb throat..and see if it fits.by this you will not ruin the lnb! but if you have invacom C120 feed it will be the best! see modified inverto pics..I got from a UK forum..

55 dollars is cheap for HD channels per yr..I am still targeting 7east ..as my receiver has steady updates on 7east!I think 6m dish may give you Hotbird..lol

I was inclined to do the same coz I have the invacom C120 lnb which is underperforming very much as compared to the fuji quad.....37% vs 52% on the satlink 6906....the question still lingering on the throat length ....

plus I have noted some transponders are not coming in on the fuji unless I insert a line aplifier....is this lnb halfway bitten the dust?

Yeah its cheap considering the number of channels....20 plus HD channels

If you nab 7east with the 300cm am sure al get 13e....as we are sharing opposite senarios with the two sats coz of our locations....

worse come to worse back to the workshop for the fabrication

have realised the signal has dropped of late, try and realign your dishes for maximum signal.

alright, thanks

@ odilibe Please recommend a good HD decoder with 1080p that is not more than 15k for me. Thanks in advance

You can get Nalesat with a 1.8m dish in the northern part of Nigeria.

agkilis:
why is it that guys in kenya nail nilesat with 1.2-2.4m but nigerians need 3m

Good morning peeps.... Recently I rescanned my multi tv and I got channels like --imed tv, canal algeria, tv coran, tv tamazirgh jin test($), dzair tv, all in algeria but with fluctuating 32-70 signal strength. One more thing is anybody watching tv3? Its scrambled @ my end ooo

Na wah ooooo.see educative and informative thread between freddy and odilibe .what as Amos 5 got to do with this pls let us step up an go hunting fringe satellites we can lean more doing that.Enough of this my signal goes red or if yes dish size and signal percentage.To enjoy throughly FTA you need big dish and go feed hunting.10E , 7e and 25.5e you have sports feed there for epl,uefa,fa,europa ,wba,tennis,etc.

odilibe you may re-try hotbird i guess the signal should be high now because we are approaching dry season.My percentage currently is 77% on 3m with 10719 with our common fuji lnb.

@Janyves. The channels listed are on Badr 5 (Maghreb beam).
TV3 is very much alive and cool.
