Ok Boss. Was only informing the house. However the entire dish with the 5 LNBF Cost 8K at strong office. I personally don't think its expensive sha. Considering the fact that this dish is not even round like our regular 90cm.its is specially shaped to accommodate all the sattelites conveniently. Whn U calculate cost of regular dish, 5 lmbf and wahala of construction............I don't see construction as cheaper.

Regards

Where Strong office dey?

Hello Odilibe,
I am interested on getting C-band lnb holder and feedhorn for 90cm dish. Please let me know when you will be making an order from abroad as you have discussed earlier with one of our forum member, thanks.

@agkilis.Track with Aljazeera tp,10992 V DVB-S 27500-3/4.Input the MBC
tp and swing the dish slightly to the left.

my dish cant go up to 7°w ,this huge iron wont allow it go,i raised the dish up to the sky and a place shows 90% strength but no green,i raise it up it went down i tried to raise it up again but this huge rods hold me back,nilesat ,nilesat na wah for you oo00h
Re: Free To Air Satellite Tv General Thread by blexxonmak(m): 2:00pm On Nov 25, 2014
@agkilis.What is the elevation of Nilesat for your location? The best way to approach this is to calibrate the offset dish by first determining the tilt angle or take off. You can do this by using an inclinometer constructed out of a protractor.
By the way,it may interest you to know the latitude and lonitude lof Ikom
are 5.9667° N, 8.7063° E or 5° 58' 0" N, 8° 42' 0" E,respectively.

i have just use it to track 7e and it work to it to west its showing 90% strength no signal,maybe its the lnb 0.3db

i am correct,i check online fill my country and address and there it was,so i was currect
Re: Free To Air Satellite Tv General Thread by blexxonmak(m): 4:40pm On Nov 25, 2014
@agkilis.Make an inclinometer out of a protractor and a plumbline.Place the inclinometer at the flat portion at the back of dish and determine the Take Off.For Nilesat,for example,the correct elevation reading for your location on the inclinometer = (70.3 - Take Off) degrees.
Set your elevation at this value and then swing the dish around until you lock the signal.

I think for offset dish, you have to turn your dish to face the west before tracking 7w

yes the dish is faced west
Re: Free To Air Satellite Tv General Thread by Nobody: 6:55pm On Nov 25, 2014
agkilis:
yes the dish is faced west
if you can pick bein sports on 25.5 e, i see no reason why you shouldn't be able to hit nilesat.

Just btw, if you can track 7e then you should be able to track 7w, except there is blocking your dish on the west.

Hello blexxonmak,
can you fabricate something like this...this is Vsat feedhorn.

Re: Free To Air Satellite Tv General Thread by blexxonmak(m): 7:34am On Nov 26, 2014
@Dlee1. It can be done but sorry the problem is that I haven't got the time.That job will take a lot of machine hours.
Re: Free To Air Satellite Tv General Thread by blexxonmak(m): 7:41am On Nov 26, 2014
@Obiagelli. You should target 5m dish for complete Bein Sport package in Lagos.
