@ dejsam/george/butoneday,
wetin una dey ship across btw boko haram and militant zones ooo?

@ enitaaaaannnn,

nothing de happen.we just de try make peace between the two zones.

@salamander GHc300 is about $200 that is about the cost of srt 4910 as posted by a member here.i personally think it is xpensive if u compare what daarsat can offer to that of the srt 4910.A receiver that does not allow me to xplore e.g blind scan,patch e.t.c is no more attractive to me. Someone told me Net2 is at nss7 cband.i wonder if u know the tp.The w2A channel is mpeg4.yet to nail it,may be will try it when i get my hd receiver.

HEY PEEPS,I FINALY GOT METRO TV,4 DOSE OUTSIDE LAGOS,SEE IF U CAN NAIL SILVERBIRD ON 3775 H 1795 ON NSS10 37.5'W,D SAME ORBIT U WILL TRACK D METROTV,I WIL AV TO GET MY FRIEND TO HELP ME WITH D TRACKING OF MULTITV & CRTV,I AV TRIED WITHOUT ANY SUCESS,AV A NICE DAY

@borderline,
Tacking c-band signals and ku signals require different approah. Your lnb position for
c-band WILL NOT be the same for ku. Please be advised.

sayso:

George you did not reply my mail from off/ I got the stuff going bt could not finish, make we yan if you are less busy in the office. 34496

@sayso,
Sorry, it skipped my mind. I think say our discussion on phone has overtaken the mail.
Anyway sha try and call me and we'll find a way around the problem.

microgiant:

@ George

Thanks for your help, but still no success. I think i will contact pito, although i wanted to call him for the 3m or 4m for Nilesat or Badr installation

@microgiant,
That tv india tp should be able to give what you want and I think you should heed my
advice of using a regular STRONG C-band lnb to track. Recieve for yourself first then
you can think of giving others.

@enitan,
No cause for alarm. We're not shipping any arms or ammunition around!


@Emeritus153,
Forget about 2m and concentrate on viasat or w3a. Looks like that bird is
coming down soon.

@Dejsam,
Nothing yet.

@Emeritus153,
Viasat 1 is on NSS7 C band and you may need more than 90cm dish to recieve it. For
those claiming to have tracked it with 90cm dish and less, perhaps they need to specify
their location and how they went about it.
I am sure of w3a though when it comes to 90cm. Use 12728v 30000sr to track. From
dstv position, continue upwards and keep turning left (standing in front of the dish), and
you should hit green.

Elevation:  83.3°
Azimuth (true):  167.7°
Azimuth (magn.):  170.5°
LNB Skew :  -12.3°

I have a daarsat reciever with the 1m dish. Can i use it for C-band satellites? If yes, which one? Don't take it out on me.@Enitan. i just need answers pls.

Paps1:

@all can someone drop the tp for viasat on astra 2b now.thanks and waiting

@Paps1,
Viasat 1 is on nss7 c band and not astra 2b.

Try this tp: 3743v 2280sr

Or better still blindscan your decoder pointing to that bird.

@cantell,
You're better off with a 1.8m dish minimum for c-band. Just keep the daarsat
1m dish for sneaky ku birds like w6.

And yes, you can use daarsat decoder for FTA whether c or ku band.

@George_d thanks for the reply.
