@GANGSTA101 and NASHFTA. Your attention is needed.

microgiant:

If you are behind your dish W3A is to your left, but while standing facing the dish W3A is to your right and lower the dish a little bit (still standing at the front)

Sorry, could reply earlier, but it has been answered already. Check

use this frequency to track eutelsat w3a .12728 H 30.000.u will be ok with that.

Dejsam and All,

Pls. what is the approx price of a C-band LNB with di-electric ?
Re: Official Thread Of Free To Air Satellite Tv (part 4) by NashFTA(m): 3:21pm On Mar 15, 2010
@Prince Paris,
Thanks. Since I changed residence earlier this month, I dismantled my 4 dishes. (See the following link to Season 2 for pictures of my set-up: https://www.nairaland.com/nigeria/topic-182209.288.html ) So for now I am not connected to any satellite until I install them again. Otherwise, I miss my “daily FTA satellite scan routine”!! The sad thing is - I have less space this time for the dishes!!  cry

@Obijack & all
C band lnb always comes with di-electric and the price depends on the brand for instant strong c-band lnb wif di-electric in Ghana is 21.50 ghc
Re: Official Thread Of Free To Air Satellite Tv (part 4) by olatufu(m): 8:47pm On Mar 15, 2010

Re: Official Thread Of Free To Air Satellite Tv (part 4) by GeorgeD1(m): 9:12pm On Mar 15, 2010
@obijack,
Strong c-band lnb with di-electric is around N1,500 while
SUPERMAX EXTENDED C-band is N1,700 here but could be less in Lagos.
Like jibrill said, they always come with a di-electric plate.
Re: Official Thread Of Free To Air Satellite Tv (part 4) by princeparis(m): 9:14pm On Mar 15, 2010
@NASHFTA, How far with your UPS power setup. Are you using in your new place? Have you improve on it like Gangsta101 did. I am interested in something similar.

@ George_D

What is Di-electric? and what is it functions? also the cost in the market and where to attach it to?


@jayron,
A di-electric is a piece of glass cut to a square shape and used to recieve c-band circular polarity satellites.
It is inserted into the lnb throat by removing the plastic cover on the lnb and is always sold along with standard c-band lnbs like strong or supermax so there is no need to buy it seperately. You can also construct your own di-electric from a piece of transparent glass.

For knowledge on which satelites to use di-electric and which not to use, any tp of any c-band satellite ending with R or L will need a di-electric plate, e.g 3446R, 4335R, 3675L, 4223L, etc. When you see those ending with the normal V or H, these are linear polarity satellites and do not need a di-electric plate, e.g: 3478V, 3345V, 4411H, 4002H, etc.

yur signal strength for 12728 is still very weak for MBCs to pop up, try and get up to about 75% on 4653X, then mbcs will surely appear afterwards

I don't know where you are located, at my own location if i get 12728h to 61% then MBC is sure, in fact i use the MBC for tracking it's the easiest and most stable for my location. Also try blind-scanning there are times when you hit green on a one tp in a decoder and another doesn't show green, blind-scanning may bring it out e.g. it may appear as 11193 in which case if you are on 11192 you may not see green

Re: Official Thread Of Free To Air Satellite Tv (part 4) by obijack: 5:02pm On Mar 16, 2010
@ George and All,

I have just  bought a Strong C-band LNB with Di-electric at Oshodi for N1500.00. Like stated b4 the Di-electric thing is just a piece of fibre glass.

Should I just throw it into the LNB throat  or is there a special way of placing it ?

Pls reply ASAP.

@ all

i got this from a site but i don't know how true it is

HI GUYS ARE YOU INTERESTED IN TRANSMITTING MULTIPLE CHANNELS THROUGH SRT 4653, SRT 4663 THEN FOLLOW THESE STEPS

1.SET THE DONGLE POSITION OF ONE DECODER TO RS232 MODE AND ACCEPT 2. CONNECT TWO RS232 CORDS TOGETHER BY JOINING THE STRANDS CAREFULLY USING THE COLOUR STRANDS .TRY TO AVOID BRIDGIMG 3.SELECT THE OTHER THREE RECEIVERS TO RS232 MODE AND SLOT IN THE CONAX OR IDEATOR CARD THE RECEIVERS WILL IDENTIFY THE CORDS AND THE SHARE MODE WILL OPERATE ENABLING YOU TO VIEW DIFFERENT CHANNELS FROM THE FOUR RECIVERS WITH ONE SUBCRIPTION 4. IF YOUR SRT 4653,SRT4663 DOES NOT HAVE THE OPTIONS FILE IN MENU LIST PLEASE PRESS 6969 TWICE ENJOY

@obijack,
If you had read my other posts on w2a I'm sure you'll find your answer there.
Yes, you can use normal MPEG2 decoders like 4653X to track w2a but you can only get the global mpeg2 feed frequency with it (3865r, 13333sr). Normally what we do is use the above tp to track with either 53X or 63X and then feed in the mpeg4 tps to scan (3927r, 8300sr and 3939r, 8800sr) for the channels. For those using daarsat decoders, loopout the lnb signal from either the 53X or 63X to your daarbox and refer to my post on page 113 for directions for recieving the mpeg4 signals.

Re: Official Thread Of Free To Air Satellite Tv (part 4) by GeorgeD1(m): 10:06am On Mar 17, 2010
@borderline,
depending on your lnb skew, you may have to change the poplarity of mbc tp from v to h in order to recieve it. On lyngsat it says 11192 v 3210 and same is true for most people but from my own experience mine is 11192h, 3210sr. Try that if all else fails.
