Odilibe, pls where is the position of this Yamal @ 54.9E. Is it close to Multi TV or Amos 5?
..track 68.5east then raise the dish up for yamal!with 90cm dish yamal_54.9east is @-13.6° above mytv at 68.5°east! or between dstv at 36°east and mytv@68.5east!

I tracked with motorised 2.4m mesh dish the closest sat is setv/bwtv(east Africa beam) of nss12@57°east Ku band!I.e -2.1° above nss12@57east

@Truly1. Yamal 402 @ 54.9E is situated slightly above ETV (Ethiopia)/ZUKU and below DSTV positions.

@Obascoetubi. 90cm pan dish will suffice.You can also do a multi lnb setup by adding Eutelsat-70B/Ku,IS-20/Ku & Turksat.

Hello Obascoetubi,
there are twelve channels receivable on Yamal 402.9°E...African beam presently. Eight channels are free but only two channels are interesting which are GLOW TV and Lesotho Television but you can check the link below for more details.

..the dish is poorly made,assuming you tracked the sat properly...a 2.4m dish can get 98% on 22west!..97% signal quality on old strong receivers gives 87% that is if you tracked the sat with newer strong receiver..that means the signal is poor....getting another lnb won't solve the problem!

Hello Odilibe,
that dish from faithchild look like the one Ikiriye used before and if so it means that Faithchild is doing something wrong especially from the focal length... I think he is not getting the accurate focal length or that the dish was not well plumbed.

Don't be frustrated. U need patience to handle Big Dish.
1 get ur focal length right
2 ensure u are using a prime focus lnb
3 ensure u point ur lnb at the center of the dish
Good luck

"well the lnb arm should have guide it close to the focal point" grin..while adjusting lnb will only give it the correct focal point!..
