@steamslide u just need a motorized setting for your antenna,simply buy a jack and positioner i'm sure there are couple of sats dat broadcast live Soccer/EPL matches for freaks like u!
My question is: apart from the 3.5m dish, can I get same results if I motorize smaller dish like the dstv dish?
Satellite TV Technology › Re: High Definition Receivers(hd) by steamslide(m): 6:59am On Mar 07, 2011
Guys any new method of watching EPL without paying to DSTV? I just hate to let go of my cash to those guys at DSTV. I 'd rather pay other bodies!

Yes,you need to move your dish. keep an eye on what ever he does & read from the forum,so as to marry what he does with what you read.
cheers
Apart from the 3.5m dish cant I use the smaller dish (like the dstv dish ) to track Eriteriatv2? And must the dish be motorized?

I have also googled the stuff you asked me to, I think I have a fairly good idea about the process now.
Ball in your court pls.

@life707

You forgot to answer the question, do i need to move the dish?

If its just indoor stuff, i should be able to learn and do it myself, besides each time I call the installers they take me take me to town in wad!

I shall give you a call later today. Thanks
Satellite TV Technology › Re: High Definition Receivers(hd) by steamslide(m): 11:28am On Dec 25, 2010
@LIFE707

Thanks man.

I guess I have to call the installers again, because like I said am a complete novice. I dont know how to imput the frequencies.

When you say track eritrea tv2, do I have to mess around with the dish or I can do it indoors with my decoder?

My 3.5m dish is fixed on nilesat position at the moment.
Satellite TV Technology › Re: High Definition Receivers(hd) by steamslide(m): 3:03am On Dec 24, 2010
@Badaru

I am a COMPLETE novice, here is what I want: To watch EPL via fta.

I was told by a local installer here in Benin city that an HD decoder would do the job when used with a 3.5M dish.
He claimed that I could watch EPL on AD sports channel on nilesat and nova channel on hotbird.

1. Is this true? Can I watch EPL with an HD decoder on nilesat with a 3.5M dish in Benin city?
2. Do I need anything else (because another person mentioned "microbox", though the guy also said "microbox" was unreliable.
3. Another option I was told is that  I should have a modem equipped with a sim card combined with some other devices bla bla bla

The result is that I am thoroughly confused. I have noticed that most of the installers dont seem to know what they are doing cos one tells me exacly what the other says does not work!

I have spent money on these guys, yet no show! I am left with a 3.5m dish and a 4669 strong decoder and I can barely get more channels than multitv was giving me with a small dish for a fraction of acquisition cost.

Pls nairaland gurus make una come to my aid!!

waiting and hoping

This car is Nigerian used not Tokunbo.
We may never know the real reason for selling this car. This is naija, honesty is scarce (with all due respect to you Babasage!)

I believe that the risk taken for buying this car is much more than that involved in buying direct Toks.

Consequently, I suggest a price of 2.5M. I shall waiting to pick it up immediately at that price.

I hope you no go vex o!

PLS DOC I HAVE THIS PROBLEM WHICH I WANT YOU TO HELP ME IN SOLVING IT. THERE IS RED LIKE RASHES AND SPOTS ON MY AIMPITS,UNDER THE bosom AND ALSO ON MY HIPS BESIDE MY womanliness. I HAVE TRIED USING FUN BACT A CREAM,CANETIN CREAM,CANEX CREAM,YTACAN CREAM AND LASTLY AM USING ONE ACNEAWAY CREAM BUT STILL IS NOT HELPING MATTERS because I CAN RAISE MY ARMPIT IN THE PUBLIC AND ALSO CANNOT PUT ON SLEEVELESS WEARS. PLS I NEED YOUR MEDICAL ADVICE OR SOLUTION TO THIS PERSISTANT PROBLEM.


ANOTHER THING IS THAT FOR THE PAST ONE YEAR I HAVE BEEN BATTLING WITH MY RIGHT EAR. IT HAS BEEN SCRATCHING ME AND ALSO WHEN I TRIED CLEANING WITH COTTON BUD THERE IS THIS WAXLIKE THICK THAT NORMALLY COMES OUT WITH AN ODOUR WHEN IS BROUGHT NEAR THE NOSE BUT I DON'T HAVE PUSLIKE SUBSTANCE. I HAVE GO TO THE HOSPITAL TO SEE THE DOCTORS SEVERALLY BUT THEY WILL ALWAYS PRESCRIBE ANIBOITICS AND EAR DROP WHICH WILL NOT STOP THE PROBLEM.PLS HELP ME OUT.
Dermatological problems are better diagnosed with inspection (as well as the history i.e signs and symptoms) It would help if you could take some photos
of the lesions, just make sure your face does not show up. Your gsm phone camera may be of some help).

You seem to have used a number of creams/ointments, I want to know why that is so. If the right diagnosis is made, you only need one or two medications.

Is the rash itchy?
Are there others in your house or workplace that have similar rash?

From your description it appears to be fairly widely distributed. If I have the answers to the questions above, I may be able to narrow down to some
differential diagnoses.

For example, scabies rashes usually disribute around  the fingers, belt line (around the waist line), underneath the breasts etc. Scabies is extremely itchy and it usually spreads to other ppl of close contact.

I however do not have enough information to make this diagnosis.
It may be an allergic inflammatory rash.
It may be a fungal infection
It can be, ?

About your ear problem, since you say you have seen Drs and used antibiotics and ear drops to no avail, I suggest you see an ENT (ear, nose and throat) doctor.

You may also wish to do an ear swab for M/C/S (microscopy, culture and sensitivity), this may isolate the offensive organism, whether bacteri, fungal etc.
The m/c/s may also be able to identify the medication trhat will be sensitive to the organism if isolated in the test.

Hope I made some sense here. Goodluck and goodhealth to you .

For some months back now, i have been having difficulty sleeping(napping) in the afternoon, sometimes i get tired and feels sleepy but when i hit the couch or bed, i just lie there deceiving myself because it doesn't seem to come.

Some ppl would say its depression, thinking too much but hey, i can't think of anything bothering me or occupying my mind so much at all. Please i'll appreciate if there's more to this than it seems.

Thanks
Not sleeping in the afternoon is not a usual  symptom of depression. In fact it may not even be a problem.
An important thing to consider in sleep problems is whether there has been a change in the normal sleep pattern.

The questions I need you to answer in order to help you here are as follows:

1. Do you sleep well at night?
2. Do you have a recent change in lifestyle, status, job etc?
3. Do you feel fatigued, exhausted, weak (more than usual)?
4. Any loss of interest in previously pleasurable activities?
5. Do you experience "internal heat", crawling sensation?

Contrary to what most Nigerians believe, "thinking" is not necessarily the cause of depression.

Even when "stress" is the cause, you may not be consciously aware of the preoocupying worries as they are usually buried deep in your subconscious.

Hope I have been of help to you. I shall be waiting for your answers.

Panifid,

With all due respect, I think you should overhaul your business methods/strategies!
From my experience with you on saturday, I do not think I would DARE to deposit money with you for a preorder vehicle.

You should have told me straight out that you DO NOT even have an "office" you keep referring to!

Instead you took me on a wild goose chase to an obscure car dealer shop (obviously as a part-time agent) that
have some terrible looking vehicles that are not better than the ones I want to replace.

Unknown to you, I had been to that shop last week and met the real owners. Thats why I did not bother to waste my time
further. I went there because I thought you use the place as a show room for YOUR CARS.

I thank you for your time, and gooodluck in your business methods.

Hey I have the same wahala - deciding wether to buy a brand new kia or used japanese

After going through the various opinions, I am left more undecided.

I have the option of

1. buying a brand new kia optimaor
2, a used toyota highlander 02/03 or
3, a Nissan pathfinder 03/04

Pls factor in the wahala of VERY bad roads in Benin city.

(The main reason am considering a used japanese "jeep" over kia brand new is the issue of bad roads)

Is this reason good enough?
