@Brother Olofofo,
Not yet my brother.There are other parameters i have to consider.I believe the pace setters such as yourself call it fine tuning.Also from many researches,I've come to realize depending on your lnb you might not be able to receive some channels.I'm going to work on both and try to get the best out of my system.Currently i'm using fuji silver which is not performing so well as thought so after a few tweaking,i'll have to change it for Eurovision which i hear is much much better.The next phase will then be motorizing it for Eurobird and Astra.I am enjoying AMWAJ TV though.These Arabs are really enjoying things.I don't know why people waste so much money on MNET.

@All,
Here are some of the images i took on yesterday's nilesat installation.Ps.It was received on a 3m or 10ft mesh dish.
It was a very long journey but we finally made it.Here are some of the images







The write up will come soon.

You're the man! Congrats bro. With that dish size, hope u don't hv a landlord.

@George D,Gadator thankz bro 4 d info!, anybody havin' problem wit their landlord should consider movin' to sapele coz in here landlordz don't give a eff about your antenna size(d 'big ones' should stay backyard tho')!

@ swordswifter

Gr8t work bro. Keep the FTA fire burning. Which part of Accra are you?

aro seyi:

infinity hv alrdy bn scramble

They're back !

hello house its been a while now and i guess a miss alot due to my being away for some project assingnment, and happy with de way things has improve here. Thanks to you all for keeping de flag flying viva FTA for life thanks

I don't think infinity tv knows the implication of what dey are about doing. They shud remember Daarsat, Trend tv, Fstv etc. and emulate Multi tv.No monthly bill just thrill.

Infinity tv is a joke no serious thing to watch on there package so they should go on and scramble nobody cares.

@Eltonluigi,
Rather than sweat over w2a you could devote more of your time to tracking hotbird (13E) with same size dish. Both birds are close together and you would derive better enjoyment from the later-especially if your the type who likes hotsteppers.

@George D I have a 2.4m pan (strong) but what is the best lnb you think will be suitable for hotbird in P/H, because I use normal 0.5db lnb for badr 4,5,6

OH Tv advertised Oh Africa coming soon.

Are they trying to change to oh africa?

ok thanks

Its not OH tv its GTV

I want to buy a strong decoder 2moro, pls which is the best between 4669x and 4669xii. Cos i notice 4669xii dont allow the use of code to unscramble channel, i.e like RDV on w4.

iykemann:

Its not OH tv its GTV

Its was OH TV earlier,

i consider this my real first post.*This is who i am*
HOW TO TRACK NILESAT (in ACCRA)

Things you need to have
1. A c-band lnbf
2. An analoge satellite decoder (preferably the old Strong Satellite Receiver models)
3. A monitor or television set
4. A prime focus Ku lnb (Eurovision, Star Gold Fuji, Fuji Silver and Just recently Strong Prime)
5. A minimum of 2.5m solid dish or a 3.0m mesh dish
6. A good quality coaxial cable
7. A lot of patience and time

Introduction and what you must know
The most important thing you have to set up is your base. For most c-band dishes, they already come with the option of setting them up for either fixed mounts or polar mounts. If you use the fixed mount setup as your base and try to track this bird, you are in for a very long and strenuous ordeal.


This is because you won’t be able to adjust for the needed angle at the base for you to get your signal (This is the angle which is usually set for C-band dishes when we want to set them up as motorized BUD’s).


I don’t know if it has been done through that method (the fixed mount setup method) but for my almost a year of trying and failing, I can tell you from my point of view that it can’t be done. The best way is to set the dish at the base as if you are going to setup a motorized dish system (As in the second image above).

Setting up your base
There are two adjustable screws on your right in the second image above. The first is vertical and the second is horizontal. Adjust the vertical screw so that a level and equal amount of space can be noticed between that support and the dish itself. Then adjust the horizontal screw so that an angle of about 10-15 degree tilt can be noticed between the base and the support clamp (as in the second image above).By the way, the second image above was taken whiles I was facing West. This should give you an idea where the dish will tilt to.

Tracking Express AM44
First of all, take your prime focus Ku lnb off the dish if you have it on and replace it with the C-band lnb and lnbf. Turn your dish and make it face West if it’s not already facing there and begin tracking Express AM44. Use the frequency 3.663(H)/10.807 to track this bird. If you use other lnbs apart from Diplosat, you may have to change your polarity to (V) since most of the C-band lnbs on the market don’t separate polarities properly. After you pick this bird, tighten the base to fix the azimuth, make a mark on the pole at the base to indicate your reference point and then bring the dish down. (By this time you should be standing infront of the dish looking East with the dish facing West).

Tracking Nilesat
Take off your C-band lnb and replace it with your prime focus Ku lnb. You should remember to seat the Ku lnb so that it enters the feedhorn or prime focus Ku clamp halfway. You must also make sure the protruding end of your Prime Focus Ku lnb faces a direction either 3 o’clock to your right with reference to “By this time you should be standing infront of the dish looking East with the dish facing West” or 9 o’clock to your left.


Either way, your results won’t affect or cause changes in the polarity of your signal. Input 11.411(H)/27500 into your decoder.Then begin raising your dish up little by little. If you are lucky, you should pick Nilesat with no hustles at all on your first lift. If you don’t get the signal on your first run, slightly loosen the base. This should not be loosened too much. It should be just enough to help you make small adjustments in the azimuth. Now, move your dish to your right (here I am presuming you are standing infront of your dish with your face or you yourself facing East) with little increments. You first move the dish to your right and then slowly raise up your dish. Repeat the process of slowly moving your dish up and down and shifting it to your right if you aren’t getting any signals.NB:The shifting to the right along the azimuth should be between just 1cm. With God on your side, Nilesat should be in the palm of your hands.

Ps: The old analog decoder was used because it reacts quickly when you are getting closer to the signal.My signal strength is 53% in the day and 47% in the night.This should give you an idea when to start tracking.The entire process began around 11am sunday morning and ended around 5pm. I'm now going to find time to properly adjust the lnb with the help of the junction below which i left close to the dish.


I hope this write-up has been detailed enough to help you on your journey to tracking nilesat.Thanks for reading.
