@ George_ D

Am a bit confused, beside my office an installer was trying to nail NILESAT for the past two weeks . I move closer to gain from him,from what i saw they could not nail a single bird.

I contacted a friend who came and nailed it. The quality attained was just 48-50% danggling. The dish itself is 4. something metres, and when we tracked NSS7 on it was 97%. Although it was used for analog signal by the military. Am confused, i dont know what next to do.

I need expert advise

just to add to what adeexy said earlier, there's a formula used in calculating the focal point of fibre dish which i cant recollect now, i think butoneday and geroge_d can come to rescue you on that. if that still cant solve the problem, i think the dish needs to be refurbish, my 2.4m is even still performing more wonders than the dish in question.

Olofofo, I hail you for ur good work 4 this thread o. Baba God go continue 2 bless u o. Pls I need info about showsport-their bouquet, subscription, content etc. Thanks in advance.

ART to quit pay-TV?

Middle East pay-TV operator Arab Radio & Television (ART) is mulling over whether to quit pay-TV in its Arabic heartland. Pay-TV operations internationally, to the US, Europe, Asia and Australia, would continue.

The problem is that since ART sold off its expensive sports rights to Al Jazeera’s sports division, ART’s subscriber numbers have shrunk. Sources suggests that “about” half of ART’s Mid-East subs have walked. ART sold its wide portfolio of sports programming for a reported $1.5bn in November last year. Since then ART has laid off staff at its Jordan Media City play-out HQ.

The options now being considered are for ART to exit pay-TV in the Middle East and focus on returning to its free-to-air roots. ART owns numerous Arabic movies and a huge catalogue of entertainment programming which would easily fill up a handful of channels – except that they would have to be advertising funded.

ART was founded back in 1993 by Sheikh Saleh Kamel. But Sheikh Salah, who is now semi-retired, had earlier played an important role at MBC, then a single London-based general entertainment channel.

Last summer two of ART’s rival Showtime Middle East and Orbit merged their operations.

Here is my experience 2day with ew3a. i took all d advice given by you guys into use &at around 3pm 2day,i finally got mbc at 53%,12728 tp at 67% wit tv miramar at 68%. i then skewed 2 try &finetune mbc.after skewing,i realisd wat george said about aving to change d V to H depending on d lnb skew cos mbc wit V pol. didnt come up again after skewing until i changd to H & came up wit that same 53.
but d latest twist in these 90cm w3a is dat i found out d 'bracing &clamping' of d pole were failing,thereby causing d dish 2 shake &ultimalely causing d signals 2 jump frm red-green-red.so i av decided 2 start afresh wit a new locatn 2 clamp &brace d dish strongly &then track again 2morow morning. finally,i would appreciate any new tips dat can assist me in getting a better mbc signal or cant d signal b higher dan 55 on a 90cm here in SATELITE TOWN,LG cos 3months ago,wit my 1.8m in berger lagos,i stil hit 65percent on mbc. thanks.

@ all,

pls,i think some of our discusions shud be at d backyard.
All those askin for OS subscription shud take note.

On w3a go-africa,
anytime frm 9pm it hits green on 11105v3800 on my 53x 90cm dish for w3a/sirius4. Presently @ 50% & not crackin.

Pofolo, Olofofo. Anybody with useful info on how I can get it should Pls contact me. My no 08053462659

@Ameboperoo

i dont no the price for the card, you can ask olofofo.

@ Ameboperoo,
Call me, for subject is avail here.

sayso:

George sorry it was the site error,they have corrected it,it was dishpointer and the bird is Astra 2A.my curriosity got the other side of me.

sayso:

George I don't know for the info,just pict it from dishpointer and am as suprise as you are,the bird is Astra 2B.

@sayso,
Which bird exactly is it? 2A or 2B?

@jayron,
Which type of dish is the 4m? Is it pan or fibre? And what type of lnb did they use?


@borderline,
Your mbc signals can be higer than that 53%. Check your dish alignment and if possible change your lnb. Have you tried premium 2 before? You can't beat that lnb for sharpness on 90cm.

@Kcben,
Maybe those guys have also worked on the new signals to match up to the other two on w2a.
Keep enjoying!

@ all, i am grateful 2u 4 all ur contribution in dis great forum, i was able 2 nail sirius4 just yester9t tru what i read in dis forum, thanks 2u all d GURUs. but my capetown is nt showing with 4663x @ 69%, pls help also which of d channels shows

@olason,
Check my post on page 113 for the other tps of w2a:

https://www.nairaland.com/nigeria/topic-331817.3584.html#msg5694406

If you are tracking with new 4669x, just blind scan to bring out the channels
after getting the global feed tp but if your looping out to daarbox follow the
instructions as contained in my post.

It got to be Otaru of Auchi and its environs, and of course Warlord of Etsakor Land and its environs. While at it, we should also give him the Ogbonge of FTA, and that should also go with the coronation.  Congrats oooooooo. Oye amori oooooo.

@twinstaiye ,the guy too much.

@microgiant, i don't think mbc will show arsenal/westham. I heard they have big four right i.e man u/liverpool. I will nt absolutely disproved ur point provided its from reliable source.

@  George and all,

What am I doing wrong.   I tried to manually input this freq 3865r, 13333sr into my 53x  but it kept showing  invalid  frequency.

George is there something else I need to do before this frequncy can be accepted or  will it be OK to do dat in my daarbox b4  following the instructions u gave on how to  get the MPEG 4 signals.

Also my C band LNB, I inserted the Di-electric in Horizontally into the throat. Thought it did not not touch the pins in the LNB with white plastic covering. Hope this does not prevent it from working because when inserted in potrait form the D-electric does not touch both edge of the throat.

Also, is the masking tape really needed as I don't what it is going to be used for.

Congratulations to George-the man with 'WEAPON OF PAY-TVs DESTRUCTION'-5m dish .
Chineke meeeeeeeee ! !! !!!

don't bet on you intuition, to know matches they will show during live match just watchout for matches advertised with time although it's in french but the names are still the same including the time, except for the days which are in french i.e. samedi, demache.

I can comfortably tell you that those matches will air live

@microgiant

Will C.R.T.V show Man U vs Liverpool Live?
