@geman If your dish is motorized, you can actually have Smile of a Child on Apstar as long as you have 2.4m and above. It's a very sensitive channel to have, you could have to sacrifice the signal quality of other channels to have it. It actually falls a little bit off the rest, I mean if you have motorized setup on Apstar with maximum signal quality on other channels, you will have to move your Motor slightly to maximize TBN, that is actually why it's hard on static setup. If you want it back on your setup, you need a Motor.

@geman,
Yes, TBN package on SES 4/C (22W) is still roaring hot. Use 3825h, 8950sr to track
and make sure your dish size is at least 1.8M. As for the package on Apstar (76E) that beam is a spot beam
for Asia so difficult to track from here.
Hope this helps?

geman:
Hi folks, the TBN package on C band 22West has disappeared. I have also tried to catch it at Apstar 76East, to no avail. Is anyone receiving it?
Kindly advise

Secondly, I have a titanium C1-PLL c band lnb that seems to have shorted. On the display screen of my SRT 4930, it shows LNBF. I took it to an electronics repair man, who changed the regulator but still to no avail. I paid quite a sum to get this c band about 2 years ago and wouldn't want to lose it.
Kindly advise.

Thirdly, I have seen a C Band Lnb in the market here in Kampala, Uganda; it is a Stargold SG 105k. Has any one used it before, does it help with fringe reception?

Many thanks.

Ibaku: yes it doesn't but if u are very good at it, that shouldn't be a problem.i have done sky uk with it.

lovala:
Thankx aplenny doo! Hey, what's the least dish size for hitting it? Pardon my ignorance. My East is blocked for usage with my 1.8m but clear for 90cm. Will take a test ride to figa it out although I know it'll be a very arduous and long journey. Thankx once more, man.

Olayinkaoj:

Hey folks,

Some one track Yahsat- 1A (52.5East) TP- 12169 H 27500.
There are about 10 Fox channels.

All the best.

@ German: Kindly give more details on the dish size for the above posted information.

Why start this section when we have the whole Newbie section for all newbies? You want to clatter the pages with useless and duplicated sections?

kabspat:

Dear Geman,

Thanks for the info. I will be greatful if you send me more. I had a smaller dish (DSTV), so I will look out for the bigger dish and the LNB. I hope its not so costly. Secondly are you getting channels like MBC 12345 Persia, Dubai one? Then if I get one bigger than 1.8, can I be able to get Nile sat and Arabsat together?

Best Regards

Dear All, I am new to the Freesat stuff but found it fascinating. I bought a Humax receiver and I want to use to receive ARABSAT/BADR in Uganda. Can someone help me on how to set it up what to use. Secondly, can I be able to receive Nilesat in Uganda (Kampala)

Best regards
