@ Emmachile. I just returned from my dish now. I had to go 'oil' the bolt and nut cos the Jack sometimes gets stucked on the west and refuse to return to the east. Two things came to mi

1) Whether the dish is heavy for the jack to pull or
2) The jack is getting weak.

Would see the outcome.

Please confirm if you experienced same on your 3 meter dish back then

On my 3m, i use a heavy duty jack. It can still happen on any setup if the dish is lowered too much to the west or east. Its better you avoid the extreme angles or get a heavy duty jack.

If it was working fine before then there are few reasons why such thing can happen.

1. The jack could be stiff, needs to be oiled

2. Two of the 4 connecting cables clash

3. It can hang when it reaches it's limit if it's not heavy duty.

4. Low current can also affect the motor strength that moves the jack.

5. It could be that the jack is about to die.

Do your troubleshooting but if you have to replace you better get heavy duty.

Thanks man.

I did oiling, but if it persist, I'll go for heavy duty jack.
But a trusted and experienced pal told me on Friday that there isn't too much difference between our normal popular jack and the heavy duty one.

He mentioned that we have 16 inches, 32 inches and 42 inches. May be the 42 inches would be the option.

I have 3 LNB on it.

Cband 1, no plate for Sony etc
Cband prime focus, for AFN
Ku for 16e etc.

So jack starts from 68.5e and as I type now, it stops at 1.0w for AFN. I'm very unwilling to go beyond 1.0 west until tomorrow.

My team trails Madrid in the UCL and tomorrow is the second leg. After the match, I can give it a try, hence end of season, I can get 42 inches Jack

I can avoid on the west, but not on the east.

When we did the set up, we stopped at 22° west but yesterday, the dish dropped off and the positioner was showing E2.

I went up, lifted the dish and someone was moving the positioner inside.

Mesh dishes are lighter in weight than fibre and Pan, but this jack of mi e pulls this dish with force.

The jack's tenure may end at the end of this season grin

32 inches will be more than enough for the job. The bigger the jack, the slower the movement. I haven't used 42 inches before but considering how slow 32 inches can be at times, 42 inches will be frustrating. The thing is that the power unit which is the positioner has specific match for big jacks. You can as well buy both but the positioner is not always available so you will have to make do with your current positioner and get 32 inches super jack.

Those of us in Kogi and environs cannot receive afn package on 1m dish. Maybe your location is the cause bro.

Once you hit zuku, remove the cover of that LNBF and tweak it to be at 5:30, then standing behind move the dish from Zuku position gradually to your left and tilt up a bit. You must be very slow and steady here and believe me you must hit green. The next green flash as you move is your afn. Use the same 11805/27500. Good luck.

Go to Nokia Care and make your purchase with ease of mind. There should be one out there in Abuja or better still, travel to Kano and get one.

i am using 4950, but i heard 4922A is the best, because of its strong Tuner & picture quality. but 4950 is the only strong with auto roll that i know.
