1m for 16e as primary, 28.2e/26e and 5e/7e as attachments. For 60cm you track yamalsat as primary and 42e and 68e as secondary.

Oga, are you sure 60cm can get both 42e and 68e, plus Yamalsat as primary.? Because at the moment, my 1m dish is wasting in Kaduna with only 42e on it. Why.?

Eutelsat 9A has 82 KA sat transponder only...
Eutelsat 9A ku band has left 9east now located @13east.. currently known as hotbird 13E..which was replaced by eutelsat 9A ku band!
you are receiving eutelsat 9b ku band@9east probably new channels are on a weak transponder..

You might not get 5e ,the gap between 26e to 5e is much on one meter dish ,nevertheless u can try it that is what we mean by research, no harm in trial, whatever your finding keep that house posted.

5e is below the lnb bracket once 16e is primary, so it is 26e & 28e above the bracket that will contend for quality/strength. Its like you ve nvr done it before. grin

he will surely get 5e with good signal, depending on how good he is.
even with 9e as primary on 90cm
dstv blue dish i have 5e attached below but the signal is not so strong cos it is too close to 9e & the primary lnb holder does not allow the 5e to get enough signal though na only 2tp dey crack while others are stable but not strong (a little change in the weather has a negative effect on the signal)

Re: Free To Air Satellite Tv General Thread by Eldemmi(m): 1:22pm On Aug 03, 2017
strong 69 needed..location Ibadan or nearby environ
Re: Free To Air Satellite Tv General Thread by logonlaredo: 1:24pm On Aug 03, 2017
@ all
On nigcomsat; 60cm is very good but a little change in weather (cloudiness/ rain) has great effect on the only tp with channel (12518H29500) but when the weather is clear the tp is always ok.
NB: rainy season is almost over, so u can stick to 60cm for nigcomsat unless an additional tp (stubborn)with channel joins d sat which will require a bigger dish.
My advice for those looking for bigger dish for nigcomsat; Save ur money for now and manage ur 60cm

I don't know what exactly the problem might be but, try to remember what u did last before the receiver started doing like that. That will give any1 that want to assist a better idea.
Re: Free To Air Satellite Tv General Thread by logonlaredo: 3:14pm On Aug 03, 2017
@ warboy
If it was after u load a new firmware, I will suggest u try to load the previous firmware u were using before the new one. just copy the firmware into an empty flashdrive(virus free), power off ur receiver, connect the flashdrive to the USB port of the receiver, then power the receiver on and wait for the receiver to boot.

If the problem persist, try to factory reset the receiver and observe how it functions for hours, then if u are satisfied u can then go ahead and update to the latest firmware.

and finally if none of the above works for u, then u have to see a KNOWLEDGEABLE technician​ to look into it for u.

It's likely to be a hardware fault than software, which rules out the processor or software upgrade.
If you are using HDMI, try AV and RF, then not your observations. It's likely to be fault of AV panel. But if the 3 options are doing the same thing, then you need to visit your electronics engineer to look at the board.

I have tracked 16e as primary with 28.2e n 26e and 5e as attachment before on 1M dish,its only 7e that refused to pop up with SeS 5e.....my major concern is Nigcomsat 42 as primary and 68.5e attached on 60cm,i will try it since gurus said its possible.......
