@pitodenz,
@badaru,
@BUTONEDAY,
@all,

I finally got round to tracking the naughty w2a mpeg4 signals (3927r & 3937r) yesterday using daarbox! Even though I had previously tracked the bird several weeks ago using the global mpeg2 beam (3865r) on my 46663X, when I input the above mpeg4 tps in daarbox nothing came out and I almost went ahead to collect the new STRONG 4669X until I made a last ditch effort yesterday morning.

What I did: I had earlier replaced my K6 lnb with SUPERMAX extended c-Band on Monday preparatory to yesterday's tracking. With the help of my satfinder software, I then copied the beam parameters for the MPEG4 signals and manually entered them on the daarbox transponder menu and gbam! Green jumped out! I was pleasantly surprised at the full signals (which have been there all along). I am hitting almost 85% quality on both tps after maximum tracking.

My findings: You can receive w2a with an offset c-band lnb on 2.4m here in the south-south. Also, daarbox works well with w2a but you to need to know how to manually adjust all the beam parameters for the signal to jump out.

@ George_D,

This is two in one LNBF, ku and c-band. It saves you a lot stresses with a very high performance.

Re: Official Thread Of Free To Air Satellite Tv (part 4) by obnelly: 7:17am On Mar 12, 2010
i guess those stations must be from poland
Re: Official Thread Of Free To Air Satellite Tv (part 4) by obnelly: 7:28am On Mar 12, 2010
its has come to a known fact now ,that the more we track nilesat signal the better and improvement in term of the signal received,Quoted Chief Badaru in the previous post.,season 1 and 2 precisely.Initially we couldnt get good signal either on nile or on hotbird but with the Help of Badaru and Adewest now the sky is nt our limit,keep tracking ,keep flying ,FTA forever.If we can contribute all these so much on free to air and i think its high time we open a thread on renewable energy sources i.e alternative energy ,i believe we can do it .if we can fight against pay tv due to there poor performance, we can too on power holder of 9ja ,I GUESS YOU KNOW WHAT AM SAYING HERE. Everything is free let us contribute and see if things wouldnt work.

ola i go hala u soon.

Guys,

Am new to all this FTA stuff so pls bear with me. My friend in Dubai can get me the latest Strong HD decoder with recording function just like DSTV PVR. I want to know if it can work in Nigeria (Lagos). Here are the link to see what it looks like -
http://www.strong-technologies.com/frmProdDetails.aspx?id=301
http://www.strong-technologies.com/frmProdDetails.aspx?id=308

I know you can buy Strong decoder at Alaba but my guy said these are the latest model and not yet available in naija.

Grateful for your advice!
Re: Official Thread Of Free To Air Satellite Tv (part 4) by GeorgeD1(m): 5:55pm On Mar 12, 2010
@adewest,
That lnb looks promising but I remember in season 2 we discussed extensively on the disadvantages of using combined c/ku lnbs and concluded that they are not as effective as single. Are you now saying this is an improvement version or what? If yes, then I think I will like to try it on my motorised and see the difference.
