Attention Chinedu and all FTA gurus
please help.

With a single 60cm dish, there aren't much you can get, let alone getting all. For nollywood you need to track 7e, of course you need another dish not less than 90cm and a diseq.

Emmachile.

I do observe that after heavy rainfalls and whirlwind, dish do tilt and despite having programmed the positioned, one still get no signal or Audio.

I'll most times have to reprogram.

Do you guys experience that?

That's Lagos though
Do you mean major reprogramming or just fine tuning? Fine tuning is regular occurrence with big jacked dishes especially Comstar Mesh.

16e central lnb 28e and 7e are possible on single 60cm dish. But on my own setup I have 28e&26e with one lnb and 7e&5e with another lnb with 16e been the primary 5 in 1 60cm setup.

It is not general,you may need to tilt your dish,especially if it rained recently before you observed this.It is loud and clear here,vibrating at high tempo. AFN packages thrill.
Enjoy.

Fine tuning. For instance 1:0 west was programmed at number on the positioner. After the rainfall, i get no signal. Then adjust the dish slightly to bring back the signal quality. After this is done, AFN would no longer be on position 9. I would have to save this new adjusted position as number 9.

Same applies to all satellites from 68.5 east to 34 west.

You may need to tighten the nuts very well or increase the nut size to a larger one.

I fear that

.They want to add Simulcrypt Verimatrix conditional access to the existing Power Vu encryption there by making it impossible for illegal viewing. Some days ago i reported that AFN was up to something, be guided.

Its normal.
if it happens when the dish faces east, move it to the west limits, wait for a few minutes... Say 5mins or more depending on how heavy ur dish is, and return.
For me it get corrected.

For instance, if my dish is on mbc@26e, I will move it to mbc@7w and watch MBC there. By the time I return to d east, it get corrected.

With time, u won't border about those programmed numbers as for me they serve as guide... So fine turning is all u need rather than programming & reprogramming ur actuator all the time
