@ george, hope yur kids dont quarrel wit u on what stations? I dont think am gonna install fta cos of some kids or madame, am selfish in that area, fta is for ME ALONE.

Dejsam:

@george d,

i have even discovered a new stuff about what we discussed earlier.infact its the best option than i earlier advised.it was when i went to search

around for the c band stuff that i discoverd we even have a dual purpose type that is ready made availabe in the market.i will keep u posted sha.

@Dejsam,
Looks like you just made my day! We will discuss this off topic.

@Enitan,
You can't be that selfish,
i won't say more than this. wait until u get there!
nobody go tell u to put fta for your family

@enitan,
I just allow my kids to watch while I go inside and stay glued on mbc2 or bbc world on nilesat . No quarrel at all. As for being selfish, I'm sure you'll learn how to accomodate them when the time comes. There's a difference btw being a bachelor and being a father!

@george-d c-band is strong lnb,but d name of d disecq has been erasd due 2 rust,it is d normal 4-lnb-inlet(i use 2 inlet 4 c &k lnb)& 1 outlet 2 decoder,d signal loss is more pronouncd in d evenings,(2) pls 4 clarity,is dere any chance of me getin any nilesat signal in lagos(any southwest state at all?)wit a 1.8m dish? (3) can 1 use my VCR 2 record programs frm my decoder,&how?,pls pardon my long post

@borderline,
(1) If the c-band lnb is STRONG then I think it may have nothing to do with the glo mast. So far only SUPERMAX c band lnbs have been reported to have conflict with gsm base station signals and it is mtn to be more specific. If your strong is fluctuating and gets bad in the evenings. it means you need to look at your lnb positioning in the scaler. Maybe it has shifted due to weather. I will not say dish alignment because from experience, motorised dishes hardly shift in alignment except you manually go and tamper with them. Also, check your diseqc. If possible change it out and fix a new one.

(2)For nilesat, you can use a 1.8m dish to recieve it in lagos but it takes a lot of hard work and only the vertical tps will be stable. Your best bet is a 2.4m dish.

(3)Yes, you can record programs from your decoder through your VCR. Just connect the AV cable from the decoder direct to the vcr. Slot in your video cassette and begin to record.

@ Adewest

Shun sir, i beg no vex make i ask one small question. The receiver, what if one uses a dual output LNB since the two signals are coming from the same bird? What is your take?

@George-D i am surprised at the price of N55k for srt 4910 in Naija.The figure of GHc 200($150) coated by Blakstars for its price here in Ghana is about N22k(N1000=GHc9.2). @enitan2002 I'm waiting for ur explanation that daarsat box is be better than srt4910.i honestly have my doubt about that assertion,though i'm ready to read ur argument on that.

@captainus
Be on standby oh.
After enitan's explanation, i'll know exactly what to do.
because i'm also very interested in srt 4910.

@captainus,
I don't know if the price has come down but the last time somebody called a dealer in Alaba Lagos, he said the price for srt 4910 was 55K. It would be a sweet relief though if they have adjusted the price downwards. Given the load of features, I think 22K wouldn't be a bad price (if true).
As for daarsat decoder being better, personally in terms of the huge price difference daarsat is the better option for now. But in terms of features, srt4910 rules.

@blackstar can u check ur mail

george this long vac,you no feel say we for jam for wafi?ur koko direction pls.

@Microgiant,
The receiver is made for dual lnb. It will also work for two separate dishes. But remember that Nile signal is very expensive for those in the south.

@sayso,
My man, I never reach town o. e for good sha if we go fit meet but I still dey jungle yonder o!

what network are you using on your phone to chat.

@all

I don't think the Strong receiver on the Ghanaian market is the SRT 4910. My check reveals that it a kind of customised version STR 4669x Plus, which does not have multi-media interface. I stand to be corrected, but it is not a fully Mpeg-4 receiver.

@ george, the most annoying part about kids is that they are NON-RETURNABLE.

I'v been watching MyTV for nearly 1 hours now. Is it now free!

@enitan,
Why would anyone want to return such lovely, kuddly creatures? Me thinks it's rather
an advantage that they can't be taken away from you once you're blessed with them!

@ Blakstar
what do you make of Salamander's assertion abt srt 4910?
