@Chinedu7, compliment of the day.l was able to track the 2.4m dish to certain extent except for the fact that, when l used the C band lnb with plate. as primary and the one without the plate as secondary on top of the primary akin to your pic.l was unable to get apstar , the maximum signal strenght l got was 73% on 4064H 19850 no matter how hard l trick the lnb.ln view of this l decided to use the lnb without plate as primary although l got LSO 20 but could not get Sony @66e and of course the celebrated apstar.Please from your wealth of experience what do think l am doing wrong or rather what is amiss with the whole set up.

From what you just said, it means your dish is not balanced. Before you can get this right, you need to first balance your dish with Ku-Band in the middle as primary. Track 20w and Mark the pole, track 16e and Mark the pole, take the dish to the middle of the two marked positions, after that lock the dish. Now finally attempt to track SES 5E, don't adjust the locked base, only adjust vertically you will get SES 5, and when you do you can check both East and West positions if the still there, you can now attach the C-bands and no position will disappear.

@Chinedu, your contribution is super and more grease to your elbow. My question is, do you have to remove the jack to do this or is there a way to carry out this adjustment without removing the jack? Presently with my 3m Dish I cannot get Apstar 76.5e with the following dish setting 1. Ku Band LNBF (middle) as primary, C-Band LNBF (without dielectric plate on top) for IS 20 @ 68.5e for Sony Entertainment, IS 17 @ 66e for Sony Kix etc. & C-Band LNBF (with dielectric plate placed below) for Citizen, Sport 24 etc but my problem is that I cannot get Apstar so pls help out.

Like i said weeks ago, Euro 2016 would be available on some platforms.

Euro cup is almost like WC, that some FTA are granted partial or full rights.

For GOTV subscribers, some matches would be available live

For startimes subscribers, some matches woulf be available FTA on NTA sport 24 FTA on startimes.

Other FTA channels details on satellite would be provided soon

Yes, for an already tracked dish, you can do adjustment with Jack on the dish but for maximum flexibility you need to remove your jack. If your Apstar is missing, it could be as a result of two things, 1 your dish alignment isn't good enough, 2 the position of the Cband lnbf is not central. If you find it difficult, then you can try to bring the cband lnbf closer to the KU band lnbf.

Go to dish settings, put off diseqc 1.0 and put on diseqc 1.1. Now you will have option 1 - 16 to choose from but for 8-in-1, you can only use option 1-8. Thanks

My Jack can't reach ses6 because it's not super heavy duty. So, I have actually not tried it. For cband lnb skew, I always use 9 o'clock, though it depends on the sat I want to prioritise in the setup. For Ku-Band 9 or 3 o'clock, again it depends on my priority. I am in Onitsha, so my MTN on 66E is poor, it difficult with 2.4 here.
