George_D:@George...actually i tested five lnb(s)...on the three metre pan dish...focus lnb, inverto red classic , fuji extreme , inverto black pro c120..but non of the lnb delivered bbc cnn and euro news on nilesat 201 as of 4pm last monday..tracking time...but inverto black quad 0.2db lnb with cut feed horn ...beats them all on weaker signal delivered better signal on nilesat 201 i can watch bbc cnn etc.. although dish may be performing poorly.. As for for amiko alien 2...needing high speed internet for streaming web tv...VOD etc..that is normal as streaming videos etc consumes lots of data ... below is the picture of focus prime lnb used for testing cheers

olenyi:Olenyi, good one from you. actually i hv got an alternate account. i faced the sentence immediately after i replied to a post posted by a member on "strong reciever thread" the guy was seeking for help in order to resolve the missing option that disappeared from his reciever. u know this has something to do with DARKSIDE. i thought that was the reason i got banned. untill when i thought back about your ealier well explained post, then i beared it as also oga at the top sometimes receives such sentence. olenyi, Do have a good day. gud 9t. |

Re: Free To Air Satellite Tv General Thread by olenyi: 7:01am On Jul 25, 2013 |
SULIEMAN3: Olenyi, good one from you. Yes, the darkside could be a reason. Also some key words are pre-programmed into the spambot. So once u post any word dat matches those, u get banned instantly and ur post hidden. When using ur alternate, find a way of letting us know so we know who we are dealing with. Regards. |

Thanks..SKEW does not the same on all installation, is only a guide to installation 5oclock might not applicable to ur set-up,just be adjusting the lnbf inch by inch when u are tracking.make sure u had a plumed installation b4 u begin tracking. |

Jossyboy2580: Pls am sorry 4 asking 2 many questions am a newbie dats y am scared f standing on my table and stil stretching for hours, tnx 4 ur undastanding Learn not to be scared. In FTA, just like in everything, no pain, no gain. Just take it as part of ur hubby and console/motivate urself with the thought of all the nice channels dat will be dancing on ur screen when u get what u are looking for. Example is our big brother @odilibe, coming back and instantly getting down to business. Also dare urself most of the time, try doing those things u feel u can't do, are impossible. Just do ur calculations well and go ahead to do ur thing. My warm regards. |

odilibe: below is the picture of focus prime lnb used for testing @Odilibe, great pictures. Just afew questions because I want to understand the meaning of this LNB cutting business better: 1. The LNB is the type for prime focus dishes and your dish is prime focus dish. I always believed the feedhorn is there to eliminate unwanted electromagenetic noise and improve signal reception. Your findings seem to suggest the opposite in that the LNB performance is actually better when the feedhorn is cut off.How can we explain this? 2. I know from experience that prime focus LNBs perform poorly on offset dishes. Have you tried a cut prime focus LNB on an offset dish? if so what was the performance. Any other gurus with experience can answer. Thanks. |

SULIEMAN3: Olenyi, good one from you.Multiple posts can cause ban..if you use the submit button twice you get banned..when you make a post check if it has already been posted to the forum to avoid getting banned ...this normally occurs when your pc is slow...and when you are banned don't try to make a post until your ban expires or else you will receive multiple ban x2..depending on the time of posting... |
Re: Free To Air Satellite Tv General Thread by odilibe(m): 9:20am On Jul 25, 2013 |
Lunsat:@Lunsat ..i don't think there is such thing as prime focus lnb or offset lnb..it is only the feed-horn that does the trick..if it is modified to match the f/d ratio of a particular satellite antenna...for example inverto C120 lnb like the red classic or invacom C120 can be used on both offset or prime focus dish by just replacing it with a prime focus feed horn or offset feed-horn respectively... 1. cutting lnb with an offset feed-horn gives it a wider angle when used on a prime focus dish...but when used on an offset dish it will pick unwanted noises... Lnb with offset feed-horn narrows the angle on a prime focus dish..this means it will see less of the dish..lol 2. l have used lnb with prime focus feed horn on offset dish /90cm..that was fuji prime focus lnb..but no signal cos it picked noises outside the dish... I hope this helps...cheers |

OK. Thanks. I think I get the idea. |
Re: Free To Air Satellite Tv General Thread by olenyi: 1:48pm On Jul 25, 2013 |
odilibe: @all..i may work on my mesh dish today...which mbc2 on w4 is it mbc2 uae? It must be very difficult working on dat dish considering the height. Must be really stressful. Just consider standing on a platform and needing to climb down to get ur 20'' spanner. And getting down again to pick up ur screwdriver or something else. ![]() But those don't deter us, does it? Keep up the work. Regards. |

If yes, try checking the port disecq by changing it to another port on the disecq and thereafter do the corresponding setting to the disecq through "dish setting" on your receiver to verify the problem Because your disecq might be damaged without knowig it.

TOLULOPE 1: How can ℓ̊ make infinity signal stable on Before making the signal stable, make sure ur dish is well alighned and that its preferably a 90cm. Set ur OTA menu under installation to default. Then scan mytv stations on 12522. Switch if off and on it again and see if it would download the new software on its own. Regards. |
