1.8m dish nilesat 7w signal on Qsat and Strong.

The signal not stable on Qsat. It fluctuates between 62 and 98%. I am thinking it could be diseqc or cable problem.
On strong 4669xii, fluctuation between 50% and 53%.
See pictures below

pls wic software can i download 2 watch live match on my pc with ss and n70
kodi is the best, but for emergency use UStream as u don't have to download or configur anything, in as much as u have the latest version on Internet Explorer, or FireFox, with all the add ons like adobe and co, or better still Chrome browser which alrealdy comes with all media player add on preinstalled. But kodi is still number 1 but it may take u litlle time to configur and that might make u miss the match

Why? If you can't track it yourself, look for an installer to track it for you.

"that means your signal Quality will be 43% on the old/first models of strong receivers"-4% on SQ your picture should be freezing!

Yonderguy:
Please gurus in the house should help me interpret this satellite (Thaicom 6) footprint 78°E in the following view:
1) Does it cover Nigeria?
2) Can 90cm dish nail the bird?
3) How can one use a motorized 1.8m to nail this bird seeing that it's below horizon?
4) If one want to use a C-band lnb on a 90cm dish, how and with what will one attach the lnb?
...
...
The map below!
Hello Yonderguy,
here is my answers to your questions.
1. Thaicom 6 global beam covers Nigeria.
2. I don't think 90cm can track it but you can try it... nothing is impossible in the world of free to air.
3. Yes, the said satellite is receivable with 1.8m if you know how to handle it. Try and check this link for big dish motorising https://www.nairaland.com/442760/motorising-big-dishes-1.8meters-above
4. You can construct lnb holder or you can order for C-band lnb holder for 90cm from abroad.

Thanks a million.
My challenge is that my motorized 1.8m dish can't reach the angle (78°E) due to the fact that it's below horizon. My motorized dish would be touching the pole, therefore can't reach the desired angle. So what can I do to track it.
Please others contribution would be welcomed! Thanks again!
